Sponsorships

DSAW-South Central invites you to become a sponsor of our annual fundraising events: Gallery 21, the Golf Outing, and the Down Syndrome Awareness Walk. Sponsoring these events highlights not only your exceptional corporate stewardship but also has a lasting impact and reach in advertising benefits that will span all year long.

DSAW-South Central Well Check

We want to support families that will be in the hospital for one or more nights. Hospital stays can be challenging especially during these uncertain times! We would love to deliver your family a comforting gift basket to make the hospital stay a little easier. If you have an upcoming stay scheduled, please reach out to us via email at: southcentral@dsaw.org so we can make sure to support your family.
