ABOUT

At Syracuse, there are over 300 registered student organizations open to all undergraduate Syracuse University and SUNY-ESF students, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender or other demographic. Each was invited to participate in this 24-hour challenge. With 38 groups taking the opportunity, there is a wide array of projects to support!


Best Buddies International raises awareness of inclusion and accessibility for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We aim to spread awareness, establish one-to-one friendships, and host service-based and activities-based events.

How Your Support Helps

Help us send someone to the Best Buddies International Leadership Conference! We have not been able to attend in the past due to cost, but would love to give one of our members this one-of-a-kind opportunity to train with global leaders that are advocating for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
