SUMMARY:VDSA Event: Rock Your Socks!
DESCRIPTION:What is Rock Your Socks? \n  \nOn March 21st every year\, people come together to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by wearing brightly colored\, fun\, silly socks. The date is symbolic because people with Down syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome\, and socks were chosen because the Ds chromosomes look like mismatched socks! \n  \nWe would love it if you could spread the word about World Down Syndrome Day by encouraging your colleagues\, friends\, and families to wear wacky or mismatched socks on Friday\, 3/21. Don’t have wacky socks? No problem! We are selling them! All proceeds will benefit individuals in your area with Down syndrome through the work of VDSA. \n  \nOrder your socks through the link below:
