CapTech to be Silver Sponsor of This Years' Best Buddies Friendship Walk

CapTech

Best Buddies Friendship Walk DC

The Best Buddies Friendship Walk is the number one walk in the country raising awareness and funds to support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The walk plays a key role in funding Best Buddies programs dedicated to one-to-one friendships, leadership development, and integrated job opportunities for individuals with IDD. Each walk provides an opportunity to see the Best Buddies mission in action at a local level.

Proceeds from the Best Buddies Friendship Walk provide the necessary tools for people with IDD to become more independent and valued members of our society. Since the walk's inception in 2009, more than 70,000 participants in 46 cities have walked to raise awareness for inclusion, friendship, leadership, and opportunity for people with IDD.

This year, CapTech is a Silver Sponsor and will also have a walk team participating. CapTech event lead, Andreea Linte, says, "CapTech is excited to participate in the walk and to raise funds to support this mission."
