Best Buddies Friendship Walk

I’m excited to invite you to be part of something truly meaningful—

the Best Buddies Friendship Walk, happening on

Saturday, April 18, 2026, at Lake Eola Park in Orlando!

The Friendship Walk is more than just a walk—it’s a powerful movement for inclusion, connection, and advocacy for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Every step taken and dollar raised helps Best Buddies create life-changing opportunities for friendship, integrated employment, leadership development, and inclusive living.

Why It Matters:

Best Buddies is on a mission to end social, physical, and economic isolation for people with IDD. Your participation helps fund our programs right here in Central Florida, allowing us to grow friendships in schools, support job placements in the community, and empower individuals to lead with confidence.

Here’s how you can get involved:

Register to Walk: Create or join a team and walk with us on April 18, 2026!

Donate: Every dollar makes a difference—and your support stays local.

Fundraise: Rally your friends, family, and coworkers to support inclusion.

Volunteer: Help us make the day unforgettable for everyone involved.
