The NENDSA is a non-profit organization which serves families of children and adults with Down syndrome, and interested professionals in the Northeast Nebraska area.
NENDSA was formed in 2012 by parents who felt a need to associate more closely with other parents of children with Down syndrome.
Other goals of NENDSA are to have a yearly Buddy Walk in Pierce, Nebraska, bring families of children with down syndrome together, and provide information for new parents of children with down syndrome.
Please join us for our 3rd Annual Buddy Walk Saturday, October 11th in Pierce, Nebraska at 10:00 a.m. at Pierce High School.
If anyone has questions about becoming an active volunteer for the Northeast Nebraska Down Syndrome Association and/or would like to help with our Buddy Walk or be a sponsor you can contact Gary Shada: Home # 402-329-4074, Cell # 402-841-9376 or e-mail:garyshada@gmail.org.
Thank you to everyone who was a part of our 2nd Annual Buddy Walk. I hope that all that attended had a great time and we hope to see you again next year. So far Northeast Nebraska Down Syndrome Association has raised just over $9,000.00. A portion of what is raised is sent to the National Down Syndrome Society in New York City.
NENDSA has found a non-profit organization called Reese's Rainbow. This organization helps orphaned babies and kids with Down Syndrome find homes. The majority of these kids have been abandoned by their parents and are from foreign countries. Because of the great distance there is some cost in getting these children to the United States. The money that will be donated will help offset some of the cost for potential future parents. Thank you again,
