@Chris – not everyone know what Best Buddies is (I don’t). You might want to be sure your posters and announcements let people know what it is, to raise interest in supporting them.
I was passing along as a favor to the organizer – Perhaps I can encourage one of them to weigh in here and say more? (Folks? Step in…)
Best Buddies is the world’s largest organization dedicated to ending the social, physical and economic isolation of the 200 million people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).
It includes much more than this but one thing that I know about from experience is students befriending other students who have IDD – watching movies, playing video games etc. If needed students help explain classroom discussions, take notes or assist them in the library.
