Island H2O Water Park

<a href="https://www.pathwayhomesflorida.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Pathways Homes of Florida</a> is holding its 6th annual <a href="https://www.pathwayhomesflorida.org/duck-race-get-your-rubber-duckies/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">DUCK RACE</a> at Island H20 Waterpark. Hundreds of rubber ducks will race around the Island H20 Waterpark’s lazy river to raise money to help alleviate homelessness that affects a growing number of Central Floridians. It’s a family-friendly festival complete with entertainment, fun and prizes. By sponsoring a duck, donors help beat homelessness as they cheer for their duck to cross the finish line and win great prizes. All proceeds will go toward Pathway’s efforts to provide housing, mental health, and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness and mental illnesses in the greater Orlando community.
 Pathway Homes of Florida is a nonprofit working to prevent and end homelessness. By partnering with the Central Florida Homeless Services Network to use funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Central Florida Foundation, Orange County, the City of Orlando and other public and private partners, Pathways helps families and chronically homeless adults with mental illnesses, substance abuse disorders, and/or other co-occurring disabilities find housing and receive services they need to recover and move forward. Pathway Home’s DUCK RACE helps raise funds to support this important work.

Robert Wallop from Annapolis and other DC-area dancers from the inclusive dance team, RhythmXpress, will be performing at the <a href="https://www.globaldownsyndrome.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Global Down Syndrome Foundation’s</a> (GLOBAL) annual <a href="https://www.globaldownsyndrome.org/acceptability-gala/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">AcceptAbility Gala</a>. The&nbsp;inspiring fundraiser also features&nbsp;a performance by Emmy Award-winning, multi-platinum singer-songwriter Rachel Platten, whose chart-topping anthem “Fight Song” inspires movements. GLOBAL will bestow their highest honor, the Quincy Jones Exceptional Advocacy Award, on Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) and Congressman Paul D. Tonko (D-NY) for their support of GLOBAL’s mission, advancing federal research funding, medical care, and public policy that improves and elongates the lives of people with Down syndrome. GLOBAL Ambassador Crystal Muro, a role model and self-advocate from Tustin, CA, will also be honored. Crystal will be joined by her Alexandria, VA based sister Liz Mahar, Deputy Vice President of Advocacy and Strategic Alliances at PhRMA, and long-time GLOBAL supporter.
GLOBAL’s annual AcceptAbility Gala brings together policymakers from both sides of the aisle, key scientists from NIH, philanthropists, corporate sponsors, and the Down syndrome community. Down syndrome is the most common chromosomal condition, affecting an estimated 400,000 Americans, yet it has long been one of the least-funded genetic conditions at the NIH. With GLOBAL’s leadership bringing together multiple stakeholders, the NIH Down syndrome research and medical care budget has increased by $440 million over the last seven years. The AcceptAbility Gala is an opportunity to celebrate the abilities of those with Down syndrome, highlight federal research funding increases, and educate Congress and the community about the transformative DeOndra Dixon INCLUDE Project Act that will elongate life and improve health outcomes for people with Down syndrome.
