DSAHRC provides parent-to-parent support and professional services to individuals with Down syndrome and their families. While the Buddy Walk helps raise funds for these vital supports, it is also an inspirational and educational event that celebrates the many abilities and accomplishments of all individuals with Down syndrome. Please walk with us, share our event, or help us fundraise by making a donation of $25 or any amount, in celebration of our Walk's 25th Anniversary. Prizes will be awarded to the team captains who raise the most by 10/31/21. Your support matters - thank you!

When our children who have Down syndrome are young, it's especially important (and fun!) to meet other families in similar situations. The Buddy Walk is the perfect opportunity for making those acquaintances. As our loved ones become adults, it's important for them to see their friends and for us parents to feel comforted by those supportive relationships. -Carol Rowell
