Public invited to social to benefit Rett Syndrome Aug. 12 in Canton

Posted

CANTON – A social to benefit Rett Syndrome will take place from 5 to 8 p.m. Aug. 12 at The Club, 25 Court St.

The public is invited to join the Coloton Family and friends for food and drinks and information about Rett Syndrome.

Catalina Coloton, 4, was diagnosed with Rett Syndrome in 2007 when she suddenly lost her ability to speak. Rett Syndrome is a rare neuro-developmental disorder affecting mostly girls.

It takes away the victim’s voice, hand use and most of their muscles, but leaves their mind intact. Rett Syndrome patients require a life of full-time care.

Price to attend the social is $20 per person and includes appetizers and non-alcoholic beverages. Children are welcome.

Tickets can be purchased at The Club. For more information, contact Leigh Cassara Kirkpatrick at skirkpatrick123@comcast.net.
