Best Buddies Champion of the Year is a ten-week fundraising and awareness-raising campaign that unites and recognizes our communities’ most active leaders for inclusion. Our Champions are advocates for the Best Buddies mission and generate opportunities for friendships, jobs, leadership development and inclusive living for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

On November 13th, Best Buddies in Hawai’i ‘ohana will celebrate the end of the campaign with our Champion of the Year Friendship Jam, an incredible concert with some of Hawaii’s most beloved musicians, as well as delicious food and drinks, a silent and live auction and, of course, our fabulous Ambassadors talking story. Come cheer our BBHI Champions’ collective impact and watch as we crown our Grand Champion Team of the Year!

You can support Best Buddies and continue to provide these meaningful programs for people with IDD by becoming a Champion, supporting a Champion’s campaign, purchasing tickets, becoming a corporate sponsor, or making a general donation to the cause. Join the movement!
