A Look Back at the 2025 Step Up for Down syndrome Walk

2025 Step UP for Down syndrome Walk participants

The 17th Annual Inland NW Step UP for Down syndrome Walk on September 20, 2025 was a huge success!

The team at DS Connections NW heartily thanks everyone who participated: those who walked, our invaluable volunteers, and our generous donors and sponsors. We deeply appreciate everyone for joyfully coming together to uplift local DS families.

As our community continues to grow, so does the need for our programs serving families in Northern Idaho and Eastern Washington. The Step UP for DS Walk is our flagship fundraising event. Your support, as well as the support of businesses and organizations based in Washington and Idaho, enable us to continue offering vital programs and events, empowering families and individuals with Down syndrome.
