For the first time in JDRF history, our chapter and Nation came together to make T1D history this weekend! To all our families, corporate partners, schools, vendors, and volunteers who participated in one of our chapter’s six fall One Walk events, we are so proud of your fundraising efforts throughout this unique year. You have truly showed us that because T1D won’t quit, and neither will you.

So far, we’ve raised nearly $950,000. More than ever, we need your help to achieve our chapter’s goal of $1,369,000. Those living with T1D manage complications daily, and the fight isn’t over until there is a cure.

So don’t stop now! There is still time to help fund important T1D research by asking your friends, co-workers, neighbors, and family to make one more donation to your One Walk team and double their gifts through their company’s matching gift campaign. What better way to ask for continued support than during National Diabetes Awareness Month?

Plus, the best thing about a virtual walk is that your efforts and the celebration can take place all month long. The Finish Line Festival will be live until November 24, and prize codes will be issued in six weeks.
