What is the Buddy Walk?
The Buddy Walk was developed by the National Down Syndrome Society in 1995 to promote awareness and inclusion of people with Down syndrome. The Buddy Walk has grown from 17 walks in 1995 to more than 260 walks were held in 2005. The goal of the Buddy Walk is to promote understanding and acceptance of people with Down syndrome.
Whether you have Down syndrome, know someone who does or just want to show support, come and join the Buddy Walk. Every step we take will be a celebration of the accomplishments, acceptance, and awareness of hundreds of thousands of people with Down syndrome.
