Happy World Down Syndrome Day

Don't have a lot of time to write, but I wanted to share this information I received from the Down Syndrome Research and Treatment Foundation as time is of the essence:

Subject: The 3:1 Donation Match is Back for TODAY ONLY!



Dear Friends,

In honor of World Down Syndrome Day, we have two exciting pieces of news to share with you.

For TODAY ONLY, all of your donations to the plus15 campaign will be matched 3:1! That means that your donation of $15 becomes $60, $50 turns into $200, and $100 becomes $400! The last time we did a matching campaign we raised over $150,000 in a single day; our goal for today is to exceed that. Please join us in donating and spreading the word about this amazing opportunity to multiply your impact!

As part of our ongoing efforts to raise awareness about the need for more federal funding for Down syndrome research, we are doing a photo petition that we will send to members of Congress. Post a photo of yourself, or someone you love with Down syndrome, holding a handmade sign that says "One of Them is Me." That message is at the core of plus15's campaign (watch our video to see it in action at https://www.dsrtf.org/plus15). Then upload your photo to our plus15's facebook page or send it to plus15campaign@gmail.com. Our community has sent in some amazing photos so far, and we want you to join us!

Happy World Down Syndrome Day,

The plus15 campaign team


Help spread the word, and Happy Down Syndrome Day.
