The Buddy Walk is a multi-city advocacy walk in which people with Down syndrome invite “buddies” to walk with them. Buddies can be anyone from friends to teachers or coworkers to politicians. The Buddy Walk will include entertainment, prize giveaways, food and fun activities for the whole family.
The goal of the Buddy Walk is to celebrate October as National Down Syndrome Awareness month, and promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome. In 2008, the DSAT Buddy Walk raised more than $35,000 to support local individuals and their families. Nationally it raised more than $5.5 million to support critical programs and services.
