March 2026 Giving

Rising Kites provides bags both to medical facilities and directly to parents just learning that their child has been diagnosed with Down syndrome providing education, encouragement, and resources for the journey ahead. 

In additional to providing support to families new to the Down syndrome community, they are also working to cultivate a space where local families in the Down syndrome community can receive care and support, and establish programs and opportunities for individuals with Down syndrome to grow and share their passions with everyone.

Danielle's mission of celebrating the gift of Down syndrome is such a bright spot within this community and one we hold very near and dear.

In the early days following Ellie’s birth and unexpected diagnosis we found ourselves facing so much fear of the unknown. Discovering Rising Kites was such a gift and a beautiful glimpse into the joy that lie ahead us as we began to navigate this new adventure. 

Will you join us in supporting Rising Kites as we celebrate Down syndrome awareness month. Your donation would help to provide bags of hope for families across the US as they receive their own Down syndrome diagnosis, along with providing the funding to support employment opportunities through Rising Kites Coffee. 

Your love and support for our family has been such a gift and we are grateful to have such a wonderful community building into us, and celebrating in the lives of both of our girls.
