SANDS is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit umbrella organization. Our mission: To
improve and enrich the lives of individuals with Down syndrome and to promote
public awareness.
Our purpose is to:
Organize and host diverse community events to increase and promote community
awareness and inclusion as well as to create new funding resources for the Down
Syndrome community.
Funds raised are then granted back via the Give it back!
program to individuals with DS and their families for the purpose of enriching
their lives through participation in programs, therapies, conferences and
more... Community Grants to local support groups
for their operation expenses can also be applied for.
Develop and/or bring new programs and services to benefit the Down Syndrome
