Helping today Helping tommorow
After almost losing our son due to an underdeveloped trachea weeks after he was born, he was able to have reconstructive surgery to correct it and months of surgeries after, he’s been blessed to live an amazing life. For that reason, my wife and I created a non profit organization “The Upside of Down”, meaning: there’s an upside to having Down Syndrome. So with Gods guidance, we made it our mission and responsibility to give back by raising awareness for Down Syndrome in any way possible. Join us in our mission to bring these children and condition to the forefront and to raise awareness and to promote acceptance. Thank you.
Our Mission is Simple to increase Awareness, Understanding and Acceptance of Children with Special Needs and be a Resource of Support Information, and Education for Families and Individuals.
Inspiration
Down syndrome is the result of having an extra or third copy of the 21st chromosome.
About 1 in every 700 babies born in the U.S. are born with Down Syndrome.
Down Syndrome causes mild to moderate intellectual disabilities.
Common characteristics of Down Syndrome are low muscle tone, small stature, slanting eyes and a single deep crease across the center palm.
