As many of you may know, Shane was involved with the Down Syndrome of Louisville Annual Golf Tournament and Auction for many years. What you may not know is that I also spent many years working with mentally and physically disabled adults and children. Furthermore, our public relations coordinator and my dear friend Sheryl Maloney worked with special needs children for nearly a decade. Everyone involved in Freedom’s Rein has specific charities they want to help, but this is one that we all agree on wholeheartedly.
Down Syndrome of Louisville is a 31-year-old non-profit organization run by a kind woman named Diana Merzweiler. This charity offers a great deal of services for those who have Down Syndrome and strives to make a true difference in these people’s lives.
From now until Monday, June 23, 2008 -- the day of the 16th Annual Golf Tournament and Auction -- we will be donating five percent of all proceeds to Down Syndrome of Louisville. All of us are very excited to attend the event, do a book signing while we are there, and donate as much money as we can to this fantastic cause.
So please spread the word and help us support a wonderful charity that is the epitome of what an organization should be!
