Opportunity Details

Buddy Walk Fundraising Committee Member 2018

The Eastern PA Down Syndrome Center(EPDSC) is looking for volunteers to be on the 2018 Lehigh Valley Buddy Walk Committee.  This is a major fundraiser for the EPDSC and assistance is need in all areas leading up to the event.  No experience is necessary but a background in funraising and event planning is desired.  Good communication skills and out going personality a plus.  Some areas of the Buddy Walk include: registration, sponsorships, raffle, food committee, parking and entertaiment. This is our 19th year to hold the Lehigh Valley Buddy Walk, so we have a good start in preparation, but could use additional hands and fresh ideas.  Monthly meeting from now until September with follow up through phone calls/emails on progress. More meetings may be scheduled as time draws closer to the event depending on the need.  The date is Saturday, October 6, 2018 at the Valley Preferred Cycling Center with activites for families and a walk through Rodale Park. 

The EPDSC has been in the Lehigh Valley for twenty years providing individuals with Down syndrome and their families medical, educational and social support.  The Buddy Walk was developed by the National Down Syndrome Society in 1995 to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome.  The Lehigh Valley Buddy Walk is held each fall and kicks off National Down Syndrome Awareness Month in October.

Dates and times of meeting are suggested but are flexible and subject to group member's availability.  Call or email Melissia Baker at 610-402-0188/epdscevents@gmail.com.
