SPOKANE, Wash. — A West Valley preschool student will make an appearance in a Times Square billboard on Sept. 17.
In addition to starting her first day of preschool at the West Valley Early Learning Center, three-year-old Aurora Nilles and her family are looking forward to seeing her face on a billboard in Times Square.
Aurora's parents, Christopher and Heather Nilles, sent Aurora's photo to the National Down Syndrome Society (NDSS) earlier this year. NDSS conducted an application process for photos that "highlight the value that people with Down syndrome bring to their communities," according to a press release.
All the photos collected by NDSS were compiled into a video presentation that will be displayed on a jumbo screen in Times Square.
NDSS plans to live-stream the hour-long presentation on their Facebook page on Saturday, Sept. 17 from 6:30-7:30 a.m. The live stream will take place right before the New York Buddy Walk in Central Park.
