Thank you for celebrating our 23rd annual Parade of Stars. What a beautiful weekend to bring together hundreds of supporters as we celebrated our friends and loved ones who are part of the Down syndrome community. Thank you for sharing your time, your efforts and donations that support DSSW's mission.

Special thanks to the volunteers, staff, planning team, and sponsors who helped things come together!

The magic is in you!! ✨💙💛

And what a magical day it was! Our 23rd Annual Parade of Stars: Magic in Every Chromosome was filled with laughter, love, community and unforgettable moments.

From the parade, games, food, raffle baskets and to a special proclamation from the Mayor of Wichita, Lily Wu, officially recognizing October as Down Syndrome Awareness Month in the city of Wichita, the day was a beautiful reminder of the magic that happens when we come together.

As part of our Parade of Stars Impact Weekend, this event is DSSW’s largest fundraiser and volunteer effort. We are so grateful to the families, volunteers, sponsors and supporters who made this day possible and showed up to celebrate individuals with Down syndrome and their loved ones.

A special thank you to our presenting sponsor, Thrive Restaurant Group, for helping make this day so special!

Here’s to celebrating inclusion, building connections and embracing the magic in every chromosome! 💙💛
