Sammy Barnes

Hey there! Welcome to my awesome Greater Columbus Buddy Walk® fundraising page! My Mom and Dad say I am the team seeker (they're obsessed with Harry Potter!). Just like in Harry Potter, the seeker has to catch the golden snitch. And guess what? You guys are my golden snitch! So, will you please join our team and become one of Sammy's Seekers? It's going to be so much fun, and I can't wait to have you on my team!

our team is walking to show our support for more than 400,000 individuals with Down syndrome (hey! that means me too!) in the U.S. Every dollar raised brings us one step closer to ensuring that every individual will have the opportunity to reach his or her potential. (wow! this is really important!)

My fundraising efforts will support local programs and services, as well as National Down Syndrome Society advocacy and public awareness initiatives that benefit all individuals with Down syndrome. (Will you help advocate for me?)

Please make your tax-deductible donation today and take the first step toward helping me achieve all of my goals. Thank you for your support. Don't forget you're a seeker now, so be on the lookout for golden snitches!
