SANDS Walk for Down Syndrome
Greetings from the Neighborhood Interaction Team!
2024 SANDS Walk through downtown Tucson
The SANDS Walk for Down Syndrome is the primary fundraiser and awareness-building event for the Southern Arizona Network for Down Syndrome (SANDS). The SANDS Walk is an extended family fun day for the entire community that features a resource fair, food trucks, and entertainment. Although the SANDS Walk is less than one mile, it is the largest walk of its kind in Southern Arizona, and anyone can participate without special training.
This year the SANDS walk is on November 15th, 10:00am -2:00pm and takes place at the Tucson Convention Center. Register here: Support 2025 SANDS Walk for Down Syndrome | Pledge It for Charities
