Best Buddies Global Ambassadors help us make a difference by joining our team and promoting the organization’s mission when they visit our Jobs participants on-site where they work, engage with local Best Buddies chapters and participate in group activities such as bowling or simply sharing lunch with their buddies, and attend our premiere five-star events across the country.
To thrive in life, we need to feel successful in our work and loved by our friends. Best Buddies has an unwavering commitment to bringing these things into the lives of people with intellectual disabilities. – Carl Lewis, Best Buddies Global Ambassador and Olympian
