Please join Berlin Elementary on Friday, March 21st, to help raise awareness of Down Syndrome by wearing colorful, attractive or unique socks!

In 2013, the theme of Wearing Unique Socks was initiated to raise awareness of Down Syndrome. The idea was created because chromosomes are shaped “like socks” and people with Down Syndrome have an extra chromosome.

People all over the world wear colorful, attractive, unique socks on World Down Syndrome Day to raise awareness.
