Step Up for Down Syndrome is our signature fundraising and community building event, held every year on the fourth Sunday of September as a kickoff to Down Syndrome Awareness Month. Each year, nearly 5,000 people join us at Como Park to celebrate our amazing community, to raise awareness about issues facing our community, and to raise funds to further our mission. Sometimes how organizations raise their money is at odds with their inclusive mission. Step Up is the opposite. Everyone is invited and registration is accessible to all at just $5 per walker.
This year's event features a live concert with our friends Koo Koo Kanga Roo.

While we would love everyone to be able to join us this year for the main walk in Como Park on Sunday, September 26th; we know that is not possible due to many factors.
