💚Please join us in thanking Fay for her service and contributions to the Down Syndrome Foundation of Florida. During her time with The FOUNDATION, she shared her talents with our members, families, and programs, helping create opportunities for individuals with Down syndrome to learn, grow, and succeed. We are grateful for the time, energy, and care she invested in our members and our mission. We especially loved her ability to show our employers what employees with Down syndrome CAN do, her ability to teach us all how to make some really incredible peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, her ALL IN GO! attitude about riding Orlando's public transportation, and her help in making our Magic Night of Inclusion a success! As she begins her next chapter and pursues her master’s degree in Human Resources, we wish her continued growth, success, and fulfillment. “The greatest impact we make is reflected in the lives that are stronger because we were part of their journey.” Thank you, Fay, for being part of The FOUNDATION’s family and journey. We wish you all the best in the opportunities ahead! 💚 by @dsfflorida

😌Every October, we have an opportunity to celebrate the people who make our community so special and to share a little more about the possibilities that come with opportunity and support. 💚At The FOUNDATION, we believe that when POTENTIAL is given OPPORTUNITY, the outcome is SUCCESS. We see that every day through our members, their families, our programs, our partnerships, and the many people who believe in what is possible. Our members continue to show us that success looks different for everyone. It can be learning something new, reaching a personal goal, making a new friend, finding a job, trying something for the first time, or simply discovering what you love to do. This month, we’re celebrating the talents, dreams, and accomplishments of people with Down syndrome and the many possibilities ahead. 🧡Share Your Story Here: https://tinyurl.com/5e9dee6z by @dsfflorida
