Welcome Back Team Jackson!
We are so excited to see you all back and welcome if you are new to Team Jackson! If you aren’t aware yet, Jackson was born with Optic Nerve Hypoplasia; also known as ONH is a medical condition caused from the underdevelopment of the optic nerve(s). This condition is the most common congenital optic nerve anomaly. The optic disc appears abnormally small, because not all the optic nerve have developed properly. It is often associated with hormone deficiencies, developmental delay, and brain malformations.

Delta Gamma came into our lives when Jackson was 6 months old, after we received our official diagnosis of ONH. Without the love and support of this organization and our vision therapist Jo, we wouldn’t be where we are at with Jackson. They showed us how to be his eyes for the world. Together we laughed, cried, and joined in triumph for all of Jackson’s milestones and accomplishments met.

Delta Gamma Center for Children with Visual Impairments provides life-changing services to help ensure children can reach their full potential. DGC is the only organization in the greater St. Louis area specializing in services for young children who are blind or visually impaired and their families.

With your help I know we can help reach our goal of $2,500 this year! All proceeds go straight to help Jackson and kids alike. We are so excited to see Team Jackson grow each year and love all the support he is shown each and every year.

We will see you there!

Love,
Amanda, Sam, Ava, and Jackson!
