Down Syndrome Awareness Night with The Philadelphia Phillies💙💛

Please use our specific code “DSAN” for this year’s Down Syndrome Awareness Day with the Philadelphia Phillies! The game will be against the Chicago White Sox at 6:05 pm on April 20, 2024 (tickets are limited so do not delay!)

THIS IS A REGIONAL EVENT AND EVERYONE OF ALL AGES is welcome and encouraged to attend as we rally together for our Down Syndrome Community in the Delaware Valley! If you have never attended, we cannot wait to meet you in person! Please know, this is an event you do not want to miss! Besides the fact that it will most likely be a high scoring game, it is an opportunity to meet your social media friends from the Delaware Valley in person at one general location, providing you get tickets with our code.

For those who have attended, I know you enjoyed yourself in the past and we can not wait to see you again. Hopefully the weather will be perfect for us!

As a token of thanks and to continue raising AWARENESS for DOWN SYNDROME and INCLUSION in our community we give out a limited amount of T-SHIRTS to those WHO USE THE LINK OR CALL IN WITH OUR CODE “DSAN” TO PURCHASE TICKETS, on a first come basis at our table (exact location for t-shirt pick-up will be sent the day of the event)-By all means, use this meeting place to mingle! Use this time to meet up with OUR T21 FAMILIES who live in PA, NJ and DE! Additionally, this is a great time to take pictures for social media!

Depending on our ticket sales number, we could be given more perks. For example, one of our loved ones with T21 could throw out the first pitch and a pre-game video! Can you help to make this happen? If so, don’t delay purchasing your tickets!

How this works:

  • Rally your friends and family to celebrate Down Syndrome in the Delaware Valley while watching the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.
  • Clink on the link below for seating charts and prices.
  • We have seats reserved in sections for different pricing and locations. (The past few years the lower level seats have sold out first, so we were given the Saturday game so we could add more lower level seats, however please plan accordingly.) Tickets are subject to availability, there have been years we sold out, this is our 15 year!

Overall we average about 650 tickets each season; for those who support our DS community, please don’t delay placing your order! Additional, the more tickets we sell the more likely we are able to receive additional perks and funds which enable us to do other community outings throughout the year.

NEW THIS SEASON:
As a reminder, this event is part of the Phillies Phunraising Program, so we as a nonprofit for T21 receive funds for each ticket sold. This season the Phillies have changed their billing format so it will show how much of the funds will be donated back to our groups, so you can write off easily on your taxes. Here is the link to purchase our discounted tickets with our code “DSAN” and the seating chart.
