Sponsorship Opportunities

The Buddy Walk ® is our organization’s main fundraiser and serves as an opportunity to celebrate and educate our communities about Down syndrome.  Over ninety percent of all money raised directly benefits members of the Champaign County Down Syndrome Network.

The Champaign County Down Syndrome Network (DSN) is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization that serves as a support network for families and professionals touched by Down syndrome in East Central Illinois.  Our mission is to raise awareness in our community by supporting inclusion, advocacy, education, and activities that enrich the lives of people with Down syndrome.

As you plan your budget for the remainder of 2024, please consider the Down Syndrome Network for your charitable contributions. Our members with Down syndrome will be able to meet their goals with the generous support of companies like yours. We invite you to join us as a sponsor for our 20th Annual Buddy Walk®.

Thank you for your consideration of this request.  We sincerely hope you will support us this year.  Your funding will help all people with Down syndrome step towards a brighter future.
