My personal message:

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page!

The Buddy Walk is a major multi-site walking event occuring during the month of October, National Down Syndrome Awareness Month.  Throughout October, more than 275 Buddy Walks will occur throughout the United States.  This event hopes to raise more than $10,000,000 to support local and national programs, and to promote acceptance and inclusion of all people with Down Syndrome.  To raise money we are seeking donations from you, our friends and families, to sponsor our participation in the walk. 

On a personal note, this event is very important to us because of our beautiful daughter Ava who was born with Down Syndrome this year.  The local Down Syndrome Association helped to educate and encourage us.  They provided us with vital medical, educational and recreational resources.  We don't know where we'd be without their assistance.  The connection and support from other parents has been a lifesaver.  We can't say enough good things about the group.

Our family is asking for your help in raising money for the 6th Annual Buddy Walk, hosted by the Down Syndrome Association of Brazos Valley, on Oct. 11, 2009.  Your monetary donations are appreciated as is your participation in the walk.  We would love for Ava to have the largest team!  The walk is one mile followed by a bbq lunch, games and a live concert. We would love to have you out to join us.   

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support our fundraising efforts.  Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Love,

The Hooks Family

Scott, Mandy, Ashley, Paige & Ava
