A HUGE THANK YOU!


Thank you to everyone for making this auction a HUGE success! We had over 50 items to bid on and all our items found very nice homes throughout a variety of states. The grand total raised was $1900 for Marissa's positional helmet therapy, and that's just from the auction. Marissa's Marchers raised an additional $1500 for the West Michigan Buddy Walk and $630.00 raised for the Triangle Down Syndrome Network.

A very special thank you to Jennifer Goodell, Rebbecca Heath (mom), Aunt Callie, Julie Rinker, and Callie for putting this all together and making it all such a wonderful success. Without your hard work and dedication none of this would have been possible. Thank you, from the very bottom of our hearts for all the you each did.

Thank you to all of you that donated items, time, or money towards our cause. We hope to see you all again next year when all money raised will go directly towards a local Down Syndrome Chapter.

Thank you to everyone that came out for the West Michigan Buddy Walk. You have all touched my heart knowing how much you love Marissa and our family. Words, truly can't express, the gratitude I have for each of you publicly standing up for Marissa and walking to raise awareness and acceptance of little Marissa and so many others with that extra special chromosome.

I hope that you all appreciate how unbelievably grateful, touched, and amazed we continue to be with the love that each of you have shown for Marissa. She is so blessed to know each of you and have you all in her life. May God's peace and blessings be upon you and your family and continue to know how very thankful we truly feel for your love, kindness, and support.
