First Annual Buddy Walk- Toronto

I’m not sure if I shared this before or not, but I am a Director/Chair on a few non-profit Boards. Helping our community is something that is really important to me, and being able to give back or share a message from whatever meager platform I have is the least I can do.

So when the notice about Toronto’s First Annual Buddy Walk showed up in my inbox, I was eager to share it with the rest of you.

Toronto's First Annual Buddy Walk

The Buddy Walk is an event for the whole family that helps raise awareness of people with Down syndrome. All you have to do is put on your walking shoes and have some fun! Participating in the Buddy Walk is a way to give people with Down syndrome in Toronto a chance for a better future.
