On Saturday November 7^th over 1,000 JDRF supporters from across southern Arizona attended the 2017 JDRF Community One Walk™!  New and returning One Walk™ teams showed up to support someone they love living with T1D!  JDRF is thrilled to announce we’ve exceeded our goal, having risen over $65,000 for T1D research and we haven’t stopped!  You can still donate to a walker or walk team, by visiting walk.jdrf.org/Tucson.
