March 21 (3/21) is World Down
Syndrome Day (Down persons have a third instance of chromosome
#21. Clever, eh?). Notably, it’s ALSO the day that Rotary Club of Alpharetta and Rotary Club Pelotas Oeste celebrate approval of a
$70,000 Rotary
International Global Grant to fund special education and
training for Down persons, their families and support groups in Rio Grande do
Sul, Brazil. God’s timing is excellent!
Thanks
to D6900 club partners Peachtree City, Roswell, Stone Mountain, Dunwoody,
Atlanta Brazil AND D7780 clubs Bath and Yarmouth! Thanks
further to the 5 additional Pelotas Rotary clubs involved - 15 clubs and 3
districts in all!
