Each day, 40 children are diagnosed with T1D in the United States alone.  Your child’s school can help support JDRF’s goal to cure, treat, and prevent T1D by getting involved with the program. Kids Walk gives students the chance to fundraise for T1D research while empowering them to make a difference and show positive support to their fellow classmate(s) with T1D.

It’s fun, easy, educational and the best part is the kids love it!

Education: Our engaging and interactive program teaches students about type 1 and type 2 diabetes and the importance of philanthropy.

Difference Maker Awards: Participating students who raise over $15 are eligible to receive fun gifts.

Money for your school: Ten percent of the total amount raised for JDRF by your school can be awarded back to the school.

Thank you banner: As a token of our appreciation, your school will receive a silver, gold, or diamond star banner for raising $1,000+.
