October 26, 2020
Can you even with these adorable faces?!? These faces inspire some of our fierce mamas on the 3/21 Pledge Committee(there are 69 total!) that come together each March to help raise funds and shout the worth of peeps rockin’ that extra chromosome for World Down Syndrome Day!! I am so grateful for their passionate, kind and loving hearts which is a HUGE part of what makes the Pledge such a success and allows us to help as many people each year as possible. We know their “why”…I mean look at these adorable faces 
but I asked them how our Rockin’ Recipients and RR have inspired them and here’s what a few of them had to say:
but I asked them how our Rockin’ Recipients and RR have inspired them and here’s what a few of them had to say:“RR means so much to me because I see a future for my daughter, Lili when I see all these amazing rockin’ recipients that go out on their own and go to college!” -Courtney Sugahara
“I get to see first hand how they are navigating college, living on their own, and experiencing a full social life and it blows me away every time. They work so hard and are so dedicated. They are not limited by their diagnosis, but instead thrive because of it.” – Shelley McCombs Bernis
“We have loved Ruby’s Rainbow since our son was born because it inspires us to never stop believing in the endless possibilities for his future. Ruby’s Rainbow shows the world that people with Down syndrome are valuable members of their communities and that they deserve to pursue their dreams.” – Enrica Haelen
“Ruby‘s Rainbow gives us hope for our daughter’s future. When she was first born I remember sitting in the hospital not knowing anything about Down syndrome and all I could think about we her adult years. I had no information Down syndrome and I wondered if she would ever drive, go to college, or get a job. When I discovered Rubys Rainbow I was so excited to see that college could be an option for our daughter. I wanted to shout it to the world! She is capable of so much and there are so many wonderful opportunities out there for her!” -Ericka Naklicki
