Artist with Down Syndrome Donates Work to Help Needy Neighbors


DARTMOUTH — Three of David Danis' favorite activities are watching television, painting and helping those in need.
One TV program he watched a while ago helped pull it all together. David, a 43-year-old with Down syndrome, watched something about a struggling family whose children were getting sick from lack of food.
"The baby girl wasn't feeling well," David recalled with a frown on his normally smiling face. "She was sick."
That gave him the idea to do whatever he could to help people in need. David, a professional painter, told his mother he wanted to donate some of his work to help the struggling neighbors in his area.
