Share with families:
Do you know a family welcoming a baby recently diagnosed with Down syndrome? Join the celebration by introducing them to Jack’s Basket! Whether they received the diagnosis prenatally or at birth, we have resources that can help support them and give HOPE to them and their community!
There are also testimonials from other families who have a child with Down syndrome. These are great resources to help answer the question “What will my life look like now?”.
REQUEST: Help fulfill our mission
Request a basket!
At Jack’s Basket, we believe that EVERY baby’s story should start with “Congratulations!”. Know a baby diagnosed with Down syndrome? Help celebrate them by requesting a Jack’s Basket for the family. Anyone can submit a request, whether you’re a provider, relative, or friend of the family! The baskets are provided free of charge to families who have a baby with Down syndrome, up until the baby’s first birthday. The baskets include baby gifts, a collection of books and resources, and the opportunity to connect with another parent raising a child with Down syndrome!
