Raise money for the Global Down Syndrome Foundation
The Global Down Syndrome foundation chooses Jason Grubb to photograph their major event
On October 10th we have the privilege of photographing the Be Beautiful Be Yourself Jet Set Fashion Show benefiting the Global Down Syndrome Foundation. We have worked many times with the Anna and John J. Sie Foundation which is active in research, education, and advocacy for Down Syndrome. We are amazed by the work they do and the beautiful lives they impact. As Colorado photographers, we are excited to be involved with a local foundation that has done, and will continue to do, so much for the Denver and Global community.
Special guests include: Quincy Jones, Josh Kelley, Tom Arnold, David Duval, Mayor John Hickenlooper, John Lynch (see blog post), Ed McCaffrey, Billy Van Heusen, Miss CO 2009, and many more.
Quincy Jones will receive the inaugural Quincy Jones Exceptional Advocacy Award established by The Global Down Syndrome Foundation. Quincy pioneered the model of using celebrity to raise money and awareness with the historic We Are The World that he produced and conducted. He worked tirelessly with Bono to raise billions to end third world debt. Quincy has a deep compassion for those less fortunate. In 2007 he wrote the award winning score for the closing ceremony of the World Special Olympics in Shanghai. In 2008 Quincy became the international spokesperson for the Linda Crnic Institute for Down Syndrome.
