Our aim is to enhance and support existing services and to raise the public's awareness of the positive contributions individuals with Down syndrome make in our community.
foundation 21 is dedicated to helping ease the financial burden placed on families who have a child with Down syndrome. Without financial assistance some families may never have access to the extra services that their child requires.
At present, our focus is providing funding for speech therapy. It has been widely published that to maximise communication development in children with Down syndrome they should receive early and continuing instruction.
We raise funds through corporate sponsorships, donations, bequests and other fundraising initiatives, such as Buddy Walk and an annual gala dinner. All donations of $2 or more are tax deductible
