"We cannot thank you enough for what you do for our son Evan. We have seen such a difference in his strength, coordination and overall muscle tone. What you do for kids with special needs is unbelievable. If it was not for the DFF Evan would never experience participating in gymnastics/fitness program. It's great to see him working and socializing with his peers. This program is essential to those on the Autism Spectrum as it helps with sensory processing and motor skills. Evan has really enjoyed his experiences with the DFF and would love to continue participating in the program."
Patrick, one of DFF's scholarship recipients, won 1st place level 3 All Around at the 2016 USAG Special Olympics Championships in Atlanta, Georgia! He took first place in vault, high bar, and parallel bars; and 2nd on floor, pommel horse, and rings. Way to go Patrick! (Pictured in center)
