The 24th Annual Walk & Stroll hosted by the Down Syndrome Association of South Texas and presented by Kym’s Angels Foundation took place on Saturday at River City Community Church. “We hope for many to join us as we recognize the Down syndrome community and bring our mission to life as a leader of inclusion, hope, respect, empowerment, and joy,” said Brian Lopez, Executive Director. The Down Syndrome Association of South Texas serves more than 1,300 children and adults with Down syndrome, providing them with programming, support, education, and community outreach.

“That first day of seeing all the kids running around, they were doing all the things that I was fearful that Julian wouldn’t be able to do,” Flores said. “And that gave me reassurance that Julian was going to have a great life. That’s what made me fall in love with this organization because I knew that we were not alone anymore.”
