On April 23, 2022, we will be staging our annual Best Buddies Friendship walk for 1000 people in downtown, Philadelphia.
We are looking for volunteers to join our Event Committee and participate in the planning for this great event.
Walkers will be students, family members, community and corporate volunteers who come together to support Best Buddies and to walk for inclusion.
Following the Walk that will begin at 11 AM, we will hold an award ceremony and provide snacks and refreshments. We are looking for volunteers to help from 9-2 PM on April 23 -- but the planning for this event begins much earlier.
