Story

I am a parent of an amazing son who happens to have Down Syndrome. Please help me support the Global Down Syndrome Foundation by donating to his World Down Syndrome Day fundraising page. People with Down syndrome are born with 3 copies of chromosome 21 instead of two. In the 1990s most countries started using those numbers 3-21 to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day.

GLOBAL's research and medical care is elongating life and improving health outcomes for me and for thousands of other children and adults with Down syndrome around the world. People with Down syndrome are awesome and they deserve to live a long and healthy life!

Please consider a generous donation by 3-21-2024. It means a lot to me and to millions of people with Down syndrome around the world.
