Improve Utah Therapies for World Down Syndrome Day

Hi! We are raising funds to improve access to a few therapies that changed our son’s life this year: DMI and Vital Stim. We live in Draper, Utah and there are currently 2 DMI providers in Northern Utah and 0 Pediatric Vital Stim Providers. Our son has Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome. Everyone with Down Syndrome can have an increased risk for many developmental delays and co-occurring diseases. Lachlan happened to struggle with walking more than average due to his hypotonia (lack of muscle rigidness) in his core, and happens to experience many feeding difficulties and disabilities including swallowing. DMI and Vital Stim respectively changed his life on those issues! To give back and honor him and people like him, we want to raise 2500 which will cover the cost of equipment for both of these therapies, in addition to a small scholarship fund to help families who need these therapies but cannot pay out-of-pocket. This money will go to therapies we are partnering with who are excited to expand DMI and Vital Stim access in Utah for any child who needs these progressive, effective therapies This online campaign will run until our annual bingo night on May 17th.

Anything raised over our goal will be given to Global Down Syndrome Foundation. Thanks for helping the Lachlan Foundation goals this year!
