How to Approach Your Workplace

•  Take your Genes Day flyers to the supervisor of your workplace and let them know that you would like your workplace to support Genes Day.

  •  Print your Genes Day flyer with your child's picture to show everyone why Genes Day is important to you.

  •  Post both information and your Genes Day flyers in prominent areas of your workplace (i.e.: break room, copy room, bulletin boards, windows, etc)

 •  Have plenty of extra flyers (both kinds) on hand to share with others to pass out throughout the community.

•  Put a collection jar in a prominent place in your work-space with the Genes Day flyer to remind everyone that you are collecting for IMDSA and give them your special website so they can donate directly to your team online. 

•  Remind everyone of the deadline to order T-shirts for this special event! (March 7th is the deadline to order T-shirts for those in North America. March 3rd for those outside North America.)

•  Continue to collect money and encourage others to help you become the top fundraising team! (The top fundraising team will receive special prizes!)

•  On March 21st pass out information sheets to everyone you come in contact with for the day and explain the unique genes of mosaic Down syndrome and Down syndrome! (note: if March 21st falls on a weekend, if your place of business is closed you can host your Genes Day on March 20th or whatever day is best for you)

•  Have fun on Genes Day! This is a great time to spread awareness and educate others about mosaic Down syndrome and Down syndrome!
