About the National Buddy Walk® Program

The Buddy Walk® was established in 1995 by the National Down Syndrome Society to celebrate Down Syndrome Awareness.

Is there a Buddy Walk® near you? Check out the map below to find where you can show your support for Down syndrome this season. Please note that new Walks are added throughout the year as they complete the registration process. Its possible planning is already underway for a Walk near you.

If you don’t see one here, consider bringing the Buddy Walk® to your city!

Kevin started running to demonstrate life-long health to his children. His hope is that both his son, who has Down syndrome, and his daughter, who does not, will join him. Kevin joined Team NDSS to support and bring awareness to advocating for people with Down syndrome. He runs to bring awareness to the fact that people with disabilities are the largest and most underrepresented minority group in our country.
