Greater Blue Ridge: Successful 2015 One Walk

ThWelcome New Families signe 2015 JDRF One Walk was one for the books!  This year we were able to exceed our goal in raising over $400,000 in the Rain!

Without the generous support of our teams, individual walkers, volunteers, and sponsors we simply could not have made this event a reality.

The JDRF One Walk is the largest type 1 diabetes (T1D) event in the world. Since 1992, it has raised more than $1 billion to support research that improves the lives of people with T1D around the world.

 

Walk Highlights:

* Over 114 corporate, family, and individual walk teams registered for the walk.

* Over $55,000 in sponsorship dollars were raised.

* 400 walkers came out in the pouring rain to share their T1D experience and take part in JDRF’s flagship fundraising event and the largest T1D event in the world.

* 5 new corporate sponsors and 47 new walk teams.

We will be accepting additional walker dollars in the office until December 1, 2015.
