Alexander's Angels 18th L.I. Buddy Walk(R)
OUR BUDDY WALK(R) MAY BE OVER BUT...
Scroll down for other details;
The Buddy Walk® was established in 1995 by the National Down Syndrome Society to celebrate Down Syndrome Awareness. NDSS empowers individuals with Down syndrome and their families by driving policy change, providing resources, engaging with local communities, and shifting public perceptions.
Alexander's Angels has been the organizer of the Buddy Walk on L.I. Since 2007. At both our annual events (WDSD celebration and Buddy Walk(R), we invite collaborating organizations and institutions that support the Down syndrome cause.
