Help Us Out - Non-Profit Video Contest - Vote for NDSC
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
Help the NDSC continue to show the world how people with Down syndrome are More Alike Than Different!
We are a finalist in Encyclomedia's non-profit video contest, which will award a fully-produced video to a local organization...but we need your votes to move on to the next round. Visit www.encyclomedia.net/nonprofitcontest, and cast your vote for the National Down Syndrome Congress.
The contest closes July 30, so don't wait! Help us create a new video for the popular More Alike campaign, by asking your friends to vote for us, too! |
