Another amazing JDRF One Walk season is in the books and the JDRF Mid-Atlantic team would like to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU for your hard work, dedication, and passion in Hampton Roads, Richmond, Baltimore, and Washington DC! What a memorable season we had across the Mid-Atlantic, including at our volunteer-led Community Walks!  

BECAUSE OF YOU we raised over $1.1 million during the 2023 JDRF One Walk Season! 

JDRF’s partnership with YOU, our JDRF family, is crucial if we are to realize our shared vision – a world without type 1 diabetes (T1D). With your generous support and commitment, we are driving research across the entire scientific and development spectrum – from discovery in the lab to delivery to patients. Measurable progress is being made toward therapies that will change the lives of the millions affected by T1D. This is only possible because of your generosity and the countless donations you secured for your walk teams. 

Walk Day is over, but our work is not done. As a reminder, your team can continue to fundraise until July 1st. Please be mindful of the below Walk deadlines:
