The Best Buddies 5k-Mile Friendship Walk

In order to reach our event fundraising goal of $10,000 our Festival of Friendship will feature a 5k-Mile Friendship Walk.  We sincerely hope that every event participant will join us in this fundraising initiative by gathering pledges from friends and family.   Every dollar we raise helps Best Buddies place another person with an intellectual disability in the job of their dreams and assists with opening and maintaining Best Buddies chapters at schools throughout California.     

To start your fundraising contact your local Best Buddies office to receive pledge forms or jumpstart your fundraising by registering online to raise funds though our Run for the Buds website and send e-mails to your friends and family to make donations through an easy to use personal donation page.
