Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

On Sunday, September 28th, Angela and I will be attending the New York City Buddy walk. The largest Buddy Walk in the country! What is a "Buddy Walk" you ask?  A buddy walk is when Individuals with Down syndrome, families and friends walk a one-mile course and then enjoy games and music to promote inclusion and awareness of Down syndrome, with proceeds benefiting the National Down Syndrome Society. As you know, Angela has Down Syndrome. The NDSS has greatly benefited us from the moment Angela took her first breath. They continue to help families by providing anything from CURRENT information to families who have a new baby with DS, to activities and information for adults who have Down syndrome as well.

The Buddy Walk has established itself as the premier advocacy event for Down syndrome. The purpose of the Buddy Walk is two-fold: to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome and to raise funds for local and national education, research and advocacy programs.
