Supporting Tourette Syndrome Families in the St. Louis and Kansas City Metro Areas and Beyond

Thanks to Recent Contributors

In December, our chapter received two generous gifts, which we greatly appreciate and would like to acknowledge.

The family and friends of Evelyn Christmann, the great-grandmother of one of our TS kids, Joe Kasprzyk, donated $325. And Industrial Shelving Systems in Kirkwood provided a combined employer/employee donation of $375.

Thank you, to both, for supporting our efforts to help TS families in Missouri.

January Event

Our next event for TS children and their families will be held Sun., Jan. 16, from 2 to 4 p.m. on the lower level of Destiny Church (1809 Des Peres Road, St. Louis, MO 63131-1407).

St. Louis native Marc Elliott will spend time with our group. Marc was born with a rare disease that left him with virtually no intestines. Then, at age nine, he was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome. He now inspires audiences across the country with his life story and words of advice on tolerance and perseverance in the face of adversity. Marc graduated from Washington University in St. Louis and now lives in Boston.

Pizza and beverages will be provided and our group will have access to the gym for shooting hoops and other activities.

This event is free of charge, however, please RSVP by Jan. 14 to Maureen Downey (modowney1@sbcglobal.net) with the number of people attending from your family.
