This past weekend, a thoughtful community art event brought people together in support of Jacob's Ladder and Cerebral Palsy awareness. We’re grateful to local artist Thomas Domsic for organizing the day, to FLUID Coffee Roasters - Downtown Valparaiso for hosting, and to everyone who participated. Whether you contributed to the collaborative painting, supported the silent auction, or enjoyed a matcha in support of our HERO program, your contributions make a real difference for the children and families we serve!

Local artist Thomas Domsic, an advocate and activist working to bring awareness to Cerebral Palsy, is hosting a creative, community-centered event in partnership with FLUID Coffee Roasters - Valpo South this weekend in recognition of Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month!

During the event, Thomas will be creating a painting, which will then be available to bid on in a silent auction throughout the weekend. We are grateful to share that all proceeds from the live painting and 15% of all matcha sales during the event will be donated to Jacob's Ladder, helping provide support and resources to individuals and families impacted by Cerebral Palsy. 🍵💚

Today, we shine a light on the amazing individuals with Down syndrome. The United Nations added World Down Syndrome Day to its official calendar in 2012, to be observed on 3/21 each year, representing the 3 copies of chromosome 21 that are unique to people with Down syndrome. 💙

Jacob's Ladder was founded by Mariann Frigo in 1998 to provide therapy services to the children of Northwest Indiana, driven by her own son Jacob's needs after he was born with Down syndrome. As of 2026, we are proud to serve nine counties across the region to ensure children and their families can receive the support and therapy services they need! 🤗
