Best Buddies Canada is a non-profit organization established in 1993 by Daniel Greenglass and Penny Shore. Our ultimate goal is to make every Canadian school and community accepting and more inclusive of people with intellectual or developmental disabilities, as well as endding social, physical and economic isolation. Best Buddies serves people that have Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, other undiagnosed disabilities and more.
This photo was taken during last year's Best Buddies challenge in Hearst Castle presented by Pepsi-Cola. Our top fundraisers are Joe Blum ($23,809.00) and Curt Overway ($6,000.00). Cyclists have a choice of cycling 100, 62, 30 or 15 miles.
There have been over 150,000 participants in 60 cities since the first annual walk in 2009. The funds from the walk help support Best Buddies programs and grow awareness of inclusivity. Each step brings the world closer to becoming an accepting place.
Join Tom's Best Buddies Team by fundraising! Team members will be able to meet Tom on May 31st, 2020 at Havard Stadium. The more you fundraise the more experiances you will get! Some experiances include reserved tickets to watch the Best Buddies Football Challenge.
