2025 Step UP for Down syndrome WALK Quad Cities

Thank you everyone who took part in the Walk!


The Quad Cities Step UP Walk was a great day of celebration with our Down syndrome community!


We kicked things off with our walk, then enjoyed a delicious lunch together while
DJ Olie kept the fun vibe going while spinning everyone’s favorite tunes. It was a joyous day of family, friends and community.

Thank you to all the participants, volunteers, and donors for making the Walk a great event.
