Funding for this research is incredibly important for families like ours. We have so many unanswered questions and hope that one day, we'll have a little more knowledge of what the future holds for Ruby and other kids affected by rare chromosome disorders. Through research, along with Xq27.3-28 Gene Deletion, Ruby has also been diagnosed with Fragile X and Autism Spectrum Disorder. Every little piece of new information helps guide our journey. Please take a moment to check out XtraordinaryJOY.org and the wonderful work they are doing in this area. This year, we celebrate 10 years of Xtraordinary JOY! The hope, support, and community created by this organization grows every year. If you are able to donate, we would be so grateful! Every little bit helps.

Please help me raise funds for a cause close to my heart and celebrate 10 years of Xtraordinary JOY! The funds raised will help achieve the charity goals for medical research of rare chromosome disorders and inclusive opportunites for people with Xceptional abilities. 

My goal is to help this organization support families and our local special needs community as well. 

Your help puts me in the running for some fabulous prizes. Every $300 earns 3 tickets for the Masquerade Ball, 2 for the fundraiser and one for a donor chosen at random.

Now let's spread some JOY!
