HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
Why March 21?
March 21 is World Down Syndrome Day. The date itself symbolizes trisomy 21, the extra copy of chromosome 21 that causes Down syndrome. Around this day, we encourage everyone to take part with a “workday for Down.”
But you don’t have to wait until March, your support is welcome anytime!
Our mission is to promote initiatives that benefit people with Down syndrome, especially in Norway. This could include projects within the arts, culture, sports, outdoor life, education, or employment. The board of Workday for Down usually takes the initiative who gets awarded, but we also welcome suggestions.
