❤️ WHY THE MORE ACADEMY MATTERS — IN RYAN’S WORDS ❤️
Hi, I’m Ryan. 👋
You may not know me, but I’m the reason Celebrate Differences began. ❤️
When I was born with Down syndrome, my family wanted what every family wants for their child—to have opportunities, friendships, purpose, independence, and a place where I truly belong.
That dream became Celebrate Differences.
Today, I’m helping inspire the next dream: the MORE Academy Day Program for adults with intellectual disabilities.
Because people like me deserve a place to learn, grow, make friends, contribute, have fun, and be part of their community.
This golf tournament isn’t just about golf.
⛳️ It’s about creating MORE opportunities.
❤️ MORE friendships.
🌟 MORE independence.
😊 MORE purpose.
🏡 MORE belonging.
Our Spooktacular Charity Golf Tournament is October 31, and we need golfers! Did you miss registration? Reach out to my mom Rebecca 630-885-3006 - It's not too late!
Will you join us and help make MORE possible?
— Ryan ❤️
