I STEP for my grandson Raymond.

I'm very excited for A Ray of Sunshine to participate in our 6th year of STEPtember. We have continually held our own in both the fundraising and stepping leaderboards with major corporations, and your participation and support mean the world to us. Our family's dedication to making a difference for Raymond and other children with multiple diagnoses has resulted in the Raging Raymond Foundation.   

CPARF has a generous non-profit partnership program that enables the Raging Raymond Foundation and its supporters to participate in STEPtember. 50% of our donations, less matching dollars, and fees, will be granted to the Raging Raymond Foundation. This year, your donations to my page will support the research and innovation work at CPARF AND the work at the Raging Raymond Foundation!

The mission of the Raging Raymond Foundation is to spread awareness about rare genetic conditions impairing brain development and neurological development in children, advocate for the causes, drive research into the disorders, and seek therapeutic interventions. We are here to support families through fundraising events, online support groups, webinars, and by providing resources. We believe in the power of community and aim to be the voice for those who need it the most. You can learn more by visiting ragingraymondfoundation.org.     

THANK YOU!
