Thanks to our generous sponsors and vendors, walk participants, and donors, this year’s JDRF One Walk was a great day to celebrate our fundraising for type 1 diabetes research! We are so grateful for every member of our walk community.

Here are some highlights from the event:

• A record number of walkers participated in the event held at University of Nevada, Las Vegas and gathered information and giveaways from the companies in our exhibitor area.

• The pictures from walk day are available on our Facebook page – team photos can be viewed here. You can also download the event day photos and team photos from our Flickr account. Use the photos to share about your time at the walk with your friends and family and ask them for their continued support by clicking on the link to the Participant Center below. We are not quite at our goal for the walk yet – asking your family and friends to support you will help us reach our goal.

• Sixty four walkers were recognized as V1Ps at the JDRF One Walk for raising $1,000 and enjoyed valet parking at the walk site, access to the V1P tent which included donated furniture from Living Spaces in Summerlin, and food and drinks donated by Kneaders Bakery and Cafe, 7 Sinful Subs, and Shake Shack during the event.

• There is still time to qualify as a V1P! As a special incentive for our walk teams, each V1P on a walk team qualifies that team for an entry to have their team photo featured on next year’s JDRF One Walk Las Vegas Save the Date postcard.
• Over 200 participants signed up to be JDRF Advocates. If you didn’t get a chance to stop by the Advocacy booth, you can still sign up and use your voice to help JDRF secure support for research and policymaking to improve the lives of people affected by T1D.

Thank you again for making an impact!
