    About the Buddy Walk

    The Buddy Walk® was created by the National Down Syndrome Society in 1995 to celebrate Down Syndrome Awareness Month in October and to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome.  The Buddy Walk is a one-mile walk in which anyone can participate without special training.  The Buddy Walk has grown from 17 walks in 1995 to nearly 300 walks planned for 2011 worldwide.  In 2010, more than $11.2 million was raised nationwide to benefit local programs and services, as well as the national advocacy initiatives of NDSS that benefit all individuals with Down syndrome.

    The Buddy Walk is a fun and exciting celebration of people who have Down syndrome and a fundraiser for the Treasure Valley Down Syndrome Association (TVDSA).  When you support the Buddy Walk, you help create awareness and acceptance for people who have Down syndrome.  And by supporting the TVDSA, you help us provide programs and education to families and advocate for those with disabilities.  Support a friend who has Down syndrome or come meet one that day!
