Down Syndrome Buddy Walk Oct 26
The 15th Annual Buddy Walk, to benefit Down Syndrome of Acadiana, takes place October 26 in Downtown Lafayette.
The Buddy Walks were developed by the National Down Syndrome Society to help promote awareness of the disease, to encourage acceptance of people affected by Down Syndrome, and to raise money to help with both.
