"On Saturday, October 18th, approximately 7,000 people joined us at Arrowhead Stadium to celebrate life with Down syndrome. The Kansas City Buddy Walk is part of 275 Buddy Walks held worldwide to promote awareness and raise funds to help individuals with Down syndrome, their families and the professionals who serve and support them. With your generous support we were the LARGEST walk in the world raising over $450,000!"
The information above was taken from the Kansas City Buddy Walk website and I just had to share it. They deserve a big pat on the back! We missed being a part of this year's walk and being among all of the great friends we have met through experiences with Blake. He and all individuals with Down Syndrome are truly a blessing and I hope each of you who read this will educate those in your communities about Down Syndrome...and maybe even raise as much money and awareness as the wonderful city of Kansas City. Way to go guys!!! We miss you all and Kansas City!
