Have you ever been in a situation where everyone around speak in a different language and when you try to communicate no one understands, instead they find you odd. Some may make an effort to understand you, while some want to distant themselves from you, as they felt that the effort is not worth their time trying to help you.
Sounds scary right?
Can you imagine living that 24-7 for the rest of your life? You can't can you? Honestly, I doubt I could ever handle that myself.
But you know what? That is what people with disabilities go through everyday. Some may not be able to see, hear, walk or even process information properly (Intellectually disable).
It's hard enough to go through life as an average person, imagine with a disability. How much more could a person handle life? Thinking of how we could help or make a difference? Well you can! But before that, watch the video first.
If you got time to spare tomorrow, why not bring your friends and family out for "Best Buddies Friendship Walk". A walk of a lifetime to create lifelong friendships between Individuals With and Without Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD)! There would be activities for the families and even performances. This is an event you don't see everyday.
The Best Buddies Friendship Walk is the latest and greatest
life-changing movement created by the Best Buddies organization. Since
2009, tens of thousands of participants have walked in countries all
over the globe, and raising millions of dollars for Best Buddies.
Ultimately, the Friendship Walk changes lives, as participants walk for
inclusion, friendship, leadership, and opportunity for people with and
without intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) .
