From our friends at DSRTF:

In celebration of World Down Syndrome Day, plus15 wants you to help show how an increase in cognition could make a difference in the life of your child with Down syndrome. To add your pin to their world map, email your first name, city/state, and a short description of what a 15% increase in cognition would mean for your child with Down syndrome.
