Hope this letter finds all well.

I am Sandy Coleman, President of Treasure Coast Down Syndrome Awareness Group. We are happily planning our 2nd annual Buddy Walk and hoping for your support. Thanks to all of those who helped last year and to those who have already donated this year. Your help is so greatly appreciated.

The 2nd annual Treasure Coast Down Syndrome Awareness Group Buddy Walk was truly a success!!

We were blessed with wonderful weather, a safe walk, tremendous entertainment, good food , increased Down Syndrome awareness and amazing fundraising! For those of you that were able to attend and contribute to our success, I thank you! For those of you that could not make it, we kept you in our thoughts and know that you were with us in spirit.
Last but not least thank you to all our angels who have guided us from the beginning of this amazing journey and continue to hold our hands in everything we do.
Our team brought in over $10,000 and money is still coming in! A huge round of applause goes out to the Lopez Family, McKesson, Boars Head, Laurie and Gary Frost and the Jackson Family that were our major contributors and helped us raise funds! You truly helped spread awareness about Down syndrome through your efforts! I also want to thank each and every one of you that raised donations as an individual walker. Thank you for your support!
I want to take a moment to mention our sponsors, donors and volunteers. Our walk is growing larger every year and with an increase in size, comes an increase in cost to put the Walk on. Below are sponsors that contributed to the 2009 Treasure Coast Down Syndrome Awareness Group Buddy Walk. Their support is greatly appreciated! There were some cash donations and I may have missed some names. Please know how much your contributions are appreciated.
