The photo of Zoey Dean was selected from more than 2,600 entries in the NDSS worldwide call for photos. The presentation will be livestreamed on the NDSS Facebook page from 9:30-10:30am on that Saturday.
The Times Square Video Presentation kicks off the New York City Buddy Walk® which takes place at the Naumburg Bandshell in Central Park. This flagship Buddy Walk® has taken place in New York City since 1995 as part of the National Buddy Walk® Program.
