"A Dane crew consisting of Down syndrome kids." What? Is that meant to be some kind of joke? If it is, I find it a bit offensive and would think of coming up with a different example. If it's not a joke, but you mean it literally, you'll have to give more context.

@JasonBassford I'm note sure what you're finding offensive. Certainly more context will help, but if you have a group of children and you want to give that group a name, that's not a problem. (Although it is off topic.) I see it as similar to naming a school house. I'm assuming Savanna is in some way a care taker for these children.

I've known people with Down syndrome, and their families and caregivers. As with any other group of people, they don't like being lumped together and characterized in a particular and stereotypical way—it depersonalizes them. It's fine to say that a person is one way or another, but it's not fine to say that "all of them" are that way.

@JasonBassford: The OP is apparently looking to do something nice with respect to a group of kids who happen to have Down's Syndrome. Do you think there are no such groups? Must one never refer to them? What's next? Can we never refer to participants in the Special Olympics?

Not exactly a contagious happiness, but if you derive happiness from someone's else happiness, then it is called confelicitous happiness. In simple words, if you see someone happy, you feel their happiness. Thus, it makes you happy.
Confelicitous is an adjective, the noun form is

2) Wikitionary: https://www.yourdictionary.com/confelicity
3) Definition.net: https://www.definitions.net/definition/confelicity

(rare) Pleasure in another's happiness.

If you need a new word for this project it may be a blend 'HAPPIDEMIC'.
This is the result of telescoping Happiness and Epidemic.
The second noun is connected both with medicine and social life.
According to Merriam-Webster's Dictionary:
EPIDEMIC
1: an outbreak of disease that spreads quickly and affects many individuals at the same time
2: an outbreak or product of sudden rapid spread, growth, or development
