Downs Syndrome Baby gets Fundraising Dollars for Heart Surgery



Colorado Springs, CO -- Dutch Bros. Coffee will be holding a fundraising event called Love for Luna at all four Colorado Springs locations. It's all to help raise money for a family in Colorado Springs.  Luna, the rock star, as her family would call her, was born with Down syndrome and a heart condition that required surgery. "She had a heart condition called atrioventricular heart canal defect," Jessica DePoy, Luna's mom, said. "Where her heart didn’t form normally and it didn’t have separate chambers so all of her blood mixed together.  Luna had surgery in July to help fix her heart defect. But with a serious illness also comes big bills, lots of doctors’ appointments and time off from work”…and so the fundraising event was born.  www.fundraising-ideas.org
