Farmak employees joined the campaign dedicated to World Down Syndrome Day
As part of the campaign dedicated to World Down Syndrome Day, Farmak employees managed to raise 45,000 UAH. Funds were raised through the purchase of colorful socks, which are part of an international action in solidarity for this date. It is simple to join in: you need to wear socks of different colours. They symbolize an unpaired chromosome – and, in addition to a gesture of support, they also make you feel a little part of how it is to be different from the majority. The rejection of people with Down syndrome by society is one of the biggest problems in their normal life.
All funds raised will be directed to families raising children with this syndrome.
We hope that our joint actions will help overcome the prejudices of people with Down syndrome so that they have the opportunity to realize themselves and feel like an equal part of society.
