The My Extra Chromosome campaign was created to honor people with Down syndrome who were born with "a little something extra." People with Down syndrome have an extra copy of the 21st chromosome, which can affect how their brains and bodies develop. Wearing your Extra Chromosome represents your love for people with Down syndrome and your commitment to be accepting of all through #GenerationG!
The GiGi's Extra Chromosome comes in all forms, (see below) from temporary tattoos and stickers to t-shirts and key chains, and even eye-catching gold and diamond necklaces! Wearing your Extra Chromosome signifies your love for people with Down syndrome and your commitment to be accepting of all through #GenerationG!
