 “We are trying to help raise funds for research to help find a cure for diabetes, a disease that kills one American every three minutes.  It is very rewarding knowing that we are helping JDRF, an organization where 85 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to finding a cure.  By working together, we can make a difference”. 

There are several ways you can get involved and be known as the people who helped cure diabetes.   Form a Family, Corporate or School Walk Team.  Corporations can also sponsor the Walk, which is great visibility for your company!  Individual walkers are always welcome.
