Buddy Walk Season is quickly approaching, and sponsorships are key in supporting all the amazing work these organizations do to help individuals with Down syndrome and their families! Please consider a sponsorship (or donation) and spread the word about a great cause!

Become a sponsor for the 2026 DSAGC Buddy Walk!

The Down Syndrome Association of Greater Charlotte operates independently, without government funding or financial support from national organizations. Everything we do is made possible through the generosity of our community and the success of events like the DSAGC Buddy Walk.

Every partnership makes a difference. Join us in creating opportunities, building connections, and making a lasting impact.
