This Saturday morning, the Best Buddies Friendship Walk will take place at North Natomas Regional Park, and it’s an event you won’t want to miss! Kicking off at 9:30 a.m., this annual fundraiser is dedicated to promoting inclusion for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. As participants lace up their sneakers and gear up for a 1.2-mile walk, they’ll not only get some fresh air but also contribute to a meaningful cause that impacts the community.
Members of the Sacramento Best Buddies advisory board are eager to share how this event fosters connections and friendships among participants. With a vibrant atmosphere, the day promises fun-filled activities and celebrations highlighting the importance of community and solidarity. Plus, there’s still time to join in the action or donate online if you can’t make it in person—because every little bit helps!
It’s a heartwarming event that offers everyone an opportunity to make a difference while enjoying the company of friends and neighbors. After all, who couldn’t use a little more friendship and inclusivity in their life? So, grab your best buddy and head down to Natomas—we guarantee it’s more uplifting than an average weekend jog!
