Help Ashley raise money

For participating in Servus Calgary Marathon 2024

My Story…

Why am I participating?

Because my son, Dawson, was diagnosed with a genetic disorder called Pitt-Hopkins Syndrome, at the age of 1.  This has severely limited him both cognitively and physically for 14 years now.  Dawson has been attending Quest since the age of 7 and has received immense support from all the staff and therapists at the school.  Having a safe and caring place where Dawson’s mental and physical needs can be supported and that also allows him to thrive socially, is rare in Calgary.  Quest has given our family a great amount of comfort and we are very thankful for its existence.  I am planning to walk 5K in this event, with Dawson in the Wike you see in this picture.  He loves going for walks and 5K for me seems such an insignificant challenge when I see the extreme effort Dawson puts in to even walk 0.01K!  I encourage you to join us with your own personal challenge on this day and help support a school that goes out of its way to support children and adults with disabilities like Dawson. Will you join us?"
