Research Needs Funding – You Can Help – NOW
We, as individuals, must take it upon ourselves to financially support cognitive research like that
being done by Dr. Craig Garner at Stanford's Down Syndrome Research Center. If families do
not find cognitive research in Down syndrome a worthy charitable cause, then who else will?
The Changing Minds Foundation currently has two opportunities for you to help fund research to
improve cognition in people with Down syndrome. The first is a campaign called, “Spare Change
for Changing Minds.” You can read more about it and learn how to receive your cans for spare
change on CMF's home page – click on 'We Can' or see Teresa's blog about it at
http://changingmindsaboutdownsyndrome.blogspot.com/2010/08/we-can.html .
The second opportunity is to enter CMF's Ball Drop Contest. Purchase as many numbered golf
balls as you want for $25 each. Every ball will give you a chance at a trip to Cabo San Lucas,
Mexico!! On October 28th
, at Wildcat Golf Club in Houston, all balls will be dropped from a
helicopter hovering over the driving range. The first ball to land in the hole (or closest to the pin)
wins the trip. The ball drop is limited to 2000 balls. Go to
http://www.changingmindsfoundation.org/golf_tournament.html to purchase your balls. Ask
friends and family to support cognitive research by purchasing golf balls.
