The imagery used on the logo has significant meaning to the group as the 21 represents “trisomy 21” which is the clinical marker for Down Syndrome, and the heart represents the vision of a welcoming and inclusive community. With the adoption of its logo and new brand identity, LDSS kicks off the beginning changes and celebrations associated with this year being the group’s 10th anniversary. Brian Hussey, father of the artist who donated the logo, said, “We are excited to unveil our new logo in conjunction with our 10th anniversary and Buddy Walk celebration. Currently, we are looking for sponsors for the 10th annual Buddy Walk; anyone interested in supporting our group and our children can call me at 912-220-1924.” For more information about LDSS or how to get involved, visit http://www.ldssga.org/ ABOUT THE LOWCOUNTRY DOWN SYNDROME SOCIETY: The Lowcountry Down Syndrome Society (LDSS) is a support group to benefit people with Down Syndrome and their families through local leadership in support, outreach, education and advocacy.
