Learn More About How We Support Researchers

Donations go toward the Down syndrome studies we support being conducted by researchers at MASSACHUSETTS General hospital and Havard medical school in Boston, MA


Across the country, there are hundreds of Down syndrome studies taking place to establish a scientific link between Down syndrome and Alzheimer’s disease. At the Libbi Thomas Foundation in Shreveport, LA, we support and raise funds for these Down syndrome studies. With the funding we provide, researchers are aiming to understand the connections between Down syndrome and Alzheimer’s and eventually create treatments to allow those with Down syndrome to live longer and fuller lives as they age.


When you choose to donate to our cause, you’ll be one of many helping us provide Down syndrome research funding to scientists and researchers. To donate, reach out to us today.

With the assistance of everyday donators and long-time contributors, we can:
