Buddy Walk 2026 Fundraiser
Help Maddie Murphy meet their goal
Maddie is now 16 & a Freshman in high school. 16 Years of coming to enjoy the annual Buddy Walk. Maddie enjoys this day so much & looks forward to it each year. She & all of her "Extra Chromosome" friends get to come celebrate just being themselves. We use the money raised on this day to help support other local & national groups to provide resources to individuals with disabilities. Our kids are special to us & we want to share them with you & the community. We want to invite everyone to come & celebrate, promote acceptance & inclusion with us on Sat Oct. 10 @ 10 am @ LSUS campus near the soccer fields. There will be a casual walk (no runs for this group if you don't want to), food, music & plenty of fun for all ages. Pre-Registration will be closed on Sept 24th, so register early. Adults $20, children 12 & under $15, & individuals with Down syndrome are free. This fee covers the cost of the T-shirt, lunch & bouncy houses. The website to register is www.upwithdowns.org. You can register @ the walk; however, we cannot guarantee a T-shirt or lunch. We can't wait to celebrate the day with you.
