Morgan's Caring Connection

06/19/2026

💜 Celebrating a Friend, a Leader, and a Dream Realized 💙

Sometimes the best part of this journey is watching incredible people accomplish incredible things.

Kelly Antonson, thank you for allowing me to walk beside you throughout this journey. You were one of the very first Executive Directors I met before Morgan's Caring Connection was even a reality. Back then, we were both working to build something meaningful for the communities we serve. Today, watching what you and your team have accomplished at GiGi's Playhouse - Madison is nothing short of inspiring.

Over the past year, you have absolutely crushed it with your capital campaign and the vision for your new building. Your passion, determination, and commitment to families have made this dream a reality, and the entire community will benefit because of it.

Last Friday, I had the privilege of getting a sneak peek of the new space, and I can honestly say—the community will not be disappointed. The thought, care, and purpose that have gone into creating this space are evident everywhere you look.

It was also wonderful to celebrate alongside so many dedicated advocates and leaders, including Michaela Marie Mulroe, Sarah Berndt, and many others who continue to make our community stronger through their work and support.

This achievement is a reminder that it truly takes a village. It takes passionate leaders, committed supporters, generous donors, dedicated volunteers, and an entire community coming together to create meaningful change. Kelly, you are building that community every single day.

I am so proud of you, my friend, and I cannot wait to join you in August for the grand opening celebration. Thank you for inviting me to be part of this journey and for all you do to support individuals with Down syndrome and their families.

Congratulations—you've earned every bit of this success.

Do you have life insurance on your children?

Many families assume it's something they don't need to think about until much later. We thought that too. The reality is that no one expects to need it—until they do.

Our daughter, Morgan, was uninsurable at birth because of her medical conditions. While that isn't the case for every family, our experience taught us a difficult lesson: everyone should have a plan in place, including coverage for final expenses.

Here’s another question:

❓ Is your child's wheelchair, hearing aids, communication device, CPAP machine, or other durable medical equipment covered under your homeowners or renters insurance?

Many families are surprised to learn the answer may be no—or that coverage limits may not be enough to replace expensive equipment.

If a piece of critical equipment was lost, stolen, damaged in a fire, or destroyed in a storm, could your family afford to replace it out of pocket?

These are not easy conversations, but they are important ones.

Join us for an eye-opening webinar where we'll discuss:
✅ Life insurance considerations for children and adults with disabilities
✅ Homeowners and renters insurance coverage gaps
✅ Protecting expensive medical and adaptive equipment
✅ Questions every family should be asking now—not after a crisis

Planning ahead isn't about expecting the worst. It's about creating peace of mind and protecting the people we love most.

Join us on 𝗧𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟯𝟬 from 6:00 to 7:00 PM on Zoom as Jason Stendalen of C4 Insurance walks us through life insurance, durable medical equipment coverage, and so much more.

📅 Register today and join the conversation. You may leave with information that could save your family thousands of dollars—and provide valuable peace of mind.

🎉A Major Milestone for the Family Support Giving Fund! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that Morgan's Caring Connection has been awarded a $10,000 grant from Old National Bank to support our Family Support Giving Fund!

This incredible investment in our mission brings us to $42,936 raised toward our 2026 goal of $70,000—more than 61% of the way there! 🎯

The Family Support Giving Fund provides financial assistance to families caring for loved ones with disabilities, helping cover critical planning services such as estate planning, guardianship, special needs trusts, powers of attorney, and financial planning. These are essential tools that create long-term stability and peace of mind, yet there is little to no funding available to help families afford them.

Because of partners like Old National Bank, more families will have access to the resources and support they need to secure their loved one's future.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Old National Bank for believing in our mission and investing in the families we serve. Your generosity will have a lasting impact on our community and the lives of countless families across Wisconsin.

With your support, we are one step closer to our goal of funding at least 20 grants in 2026, helping families face the future with confidence and peace of mind.

Thank you, Old National Bank, for helping us create brighter futures—together. 💜🩵🩷
