My Story…

Hello Everyone!

64835e06d9216.jpg

I am so excited to be running this year's Falmouth Road Race for an organization that is very near and dear to my heart. Best Buddies has gifted me the privilege to meet some of the most thoughtful, welcoming, and kind people I could ever hope to know. Throughout these past 10 years, I have served as the president for both my high school and college chapters, and I am striving to do everything I can to stay involved in this amazing organization. I can not quantify all I have gained from being a part of Best Buddies. Every dollar you are able to give is an act towards the promotion and preservation of the idea that every individual is deserving of social connections that recognize and celebrate their inalienable value, regardless of disability status.

About Best Buddies

6483639d99eb1.jpgBest Buddies is an organization that strives to make a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals across the globe with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), dedicated to fostering inclusion, friendship, and opportunities for people with IDD.

Acceptance and understanding are far too often not given to individuals with IDD. Best Buddies aims to create a society that values and celebrates the unique abilities of every individual. Through their programs and chapters, they empower individuals with IDD to form genuine friendships, develop leadership skills, and secure jobs that match their talents and interests.

Best Buddies' central belief is that everyone deserves to have a friend, a mentor, and a support system. By connecting people with and without disabilities, Best Buddies creates a powerful network of individuals who learn from each other, grow together, and break down barriers that have long separated our communities.

But Best Buddies cannot achieve their goals without the support of compassionate individuals like you. By contributing to this fundraiser, you will be directly impacting the lives of those with IDD, helping them unlock their full potential and live fulfilling lives. Your generosity will provide resources for expanding programs, organizing events, and ensuring that more individuals with IDD have access to meaningful relationships, employment opportunities, and a sense of belonging.

Every dollar donated brings us closer to a world where inclusion and acceptance are the norm, rather than the exception. 

Together, we can create a future where individuals with IDD are valued, respected, and empowered to thrive.

Thank you for joining us on this incredible journey with Best Buddies. Your support truly makes a difference and brings us one step closer to a more inclusive and compassionate society.
