Jeans Friday Raises $2,400 for DSIA

In 2009, Wilke Fleury raised $2,400 through its “Jeans Friday” program for the Down Syndrome Information Alliance (DSIA). “Jeans Friday” is an initiative that allows Wilke Fleury employees to wear jeans on Friday if they contribute $5.00 toward a charity that has been selected by employee vote. The charity selected for 2009 was Sacramento’s Down Syndrome Information Alliance, which provides support and resources for those affected by Down Syndrome to improve their knowledge and quality of life. DSIA develops and distributes informational materials, conducts outreach with local healthcare and service providers and develops a community support network to benefit families affected by Down Syndrome. Trevor Stapleton, a Wilke Fleury partner, is a member of the Board of DSIA and also serves as the organization’s treasurer. Wilke Fleury is proud to support DSIA’s efforts in our community.
