My Story…

Hello friends and family!

I'm taking on a 10-mile race this October 4th as part of the Twin Cities Marathon in support of Best Buddies! Every mile is dedicated to creating a more inclusive world where people with disabilities have opportunities for friendship, leadership, employment, and belonging.

 Please consider supporting my race and helping me cross the finish line for a cause that truly matters. Together, we can make every mile count....

because inclusion matters!

Description

Thank you so much for visiting our fundraising page! We are Best Buddies in Minnesota - a state chapter of Best Buddies International. 

Best Buddies in Minnesota (BBMN) is a nonprofit dedicated to creating a more inclusive world for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). As the Minnesota chapter of Best Buddies International, we provide meaningful opportunities for one-to-one friendship and leadership development for children and adults with IDD and their families. Our four full-time staff members and many volunteers support more than 2,600 students at 45 schools across the state and over 250 adults in communities throughout Minnesota. 

Best Buddies is unique because we offer opportunities for social inclusion throughout one’s entire life, from elementary school through adulthood, with the goal of ensuring people with IDD are recognized, valued, and fully included in their schools, workplaces, and communities.

We are so excited to be a first year Charity Partner with Twin Cities in Motion and are grateful for all our runners racing for inclusion!
