All funds raised by the RDS Runners Team will directly benefit RDS and the Down syndrome community by being directed towards scientific research that is aimed at understanding and treating the learning difficulties associated with Down syndrome. Donations pledged to your marathon miles will assist the research efforts that will lead to improved educational and employment opportunities, and perhaps independent living, for individuals with Down syndrome. We will provide our runners a fundraiser page, tips on training, an event shirt, a pre-race pasta party, and, most importantly, the satisfaction in knowing that their miles are being run to support scientific studies that will enhance educational, occupational and social opportunities for children and adults.
