Walk With Us

Join us for our biggest community event of the year!

Walk With Us is the Manitoba Down Syndrome Society's annual walk bringing together individuals, families, and organizations from across Manitoba to raise funds, build community, and celebrate the incredible individuals with Down syndrome in our lives.

Last Year's Event - Thank You!

On September 21st, over 450 amazing participants came together for Walk With Us - and together, our community raised an incredible $70,500 in support of the Manitoba Down Syndrome Society!

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who walked, donated, volunteered, and cheered us on. Your energy, kindness, and generosity help us continue to empower individuals with Down syndrome and their families across Manitoba.

A special thank you to our generous sponsors, Fountain Tire Manitoba, for making this event possible.

Let's keep walking together - today, tomorrow, and always.

This Year's Event

Date: Sunday September 20th
Location: Canadian Mennonite University, Winnipeg

Inspired by last year's incredible turnout? This year, we're expecting over 450 participants again - and we'd love for you to be one of them!

Why We Walk

To Raise Funds

Walk With Us is MDSS's primary annual fundraiser. Every dollar raised goes directly toward vital programs and services that enhance the lives of individuals with Down syndrome and their families - from educational resources and support networks to social programming and inclusive community initiatives.

To Raise Awareness

Walk With Us is a powerful platform for education and understanding. By bringing together people from diverse backgrounds and communities, the event helps dispel misconceptions about Down syndrome and foster a greater appreciation for the abilities, contributions, and potential of individuals with Down syndrome.

To Build Community

At its heart, Walk With Us is a celebration. It's a chance to connect with others who share your passion for inclusion, share experiences, and come together in support of a community that inspires us every single day.
