What is World Down Syndrome Day?
World Down Syndrome Day is on March 21 every year. It is a global awareness day that has been officially observed by the United Nations since 2012. The goal is to help people understand and support those with Down syndrome better.
The date being the 21st day of the 3rd month was chosen to represent the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.
On March 21 choose some socks that are going to get noticed!
They might be mismatched socks or your boldest and most colorful socks, whatever takes your fancy!
The idea is to start a conversation, so when people ask you about your socks, you can tell them, “I’m wearing them to raise awareness of Down syndrome”.
Then, you can tell them everything you want them to know about Down Syndrome.
