Canon Philippines joins Happy Walk 2026 for Down Syndrome advocacy

Canon Marketing Philippines joined thousands of families, advocates, and volunteers at Happy Walk 2026, an annual event organized by the Down Syndrome Association of the Philippines (DSAPI). Held at the SMX Convention Center in SM Mall of Asia, the Manila gathering drew around 8,000 participants in a show of solidarity and awareness.

Happy Walk is anchored on inclusion and acceptance. It celebrates the abilities of individuals with Down Syndrome while promoting equal opportunities in schools, workplaces, and communities. Canon executives, employees, and their families were present not just as sponsors but as active participants, adding to the energy and meaning of the day.

“Inclusion is more than a value. It is a responsibility we embrace through meaningful action,” said Anuj Aggarwal, President and CEO of Canon Marketing Philippines.

“Being part of Happy Walk 2026 means standing in solidarity with individuals with Down Syndrome and their families, and continuing to support initiatives that promote awareness, dignity, and equal opportunity for all.”
