Description

Join us for our 8th Annual World Down Syndrome Day Jogging for Max and Jude 5k race on Sunday, March 20th at 6pm in Griffin, GA. The goal is to raise awareness and support for Down Syndrome.
Our race has been able to support the Down Syndrome Association of Atlanta, provide financial assistance to families of children with Down syndrome experiencing extreme medical duress, as well as financial support for the adoption of multiple children with Down syndrome. We look forward to doing even more this year with your help!

Those who have run with us before know that the best part of our race is our amazing Grand Marshals! If you know of an individual with Down Syndrome who would like to be a Grand Marshal please let us know. Feel free to tag and share with them. We have a short survey to gather info on our Grand Marshals: https://tinyurl.com/maxandjudegrandmarshal
