The Depot – Minneapolis, MN
Celebrate with us as we gather for the best night of the year — our 7th Annual ‘You Make Me Better’ Gala.
We’ll come together to celebrate the lives of those who make us better – our children, friends, family members, students, co-workers and community members with Down syndrome. You’re invited to join us for an inspirational evening as we honor their stories and the powerful ways they enrich our lives.
We have been blown away by the response to registration of the 2023 'You Make Me Better' Gala. Our in-person tickets are now sold out!
