Raising funds for research to find a cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D) is our main goal. Fundraise the minimum for your Walk and get the benefits!
Our mission at JDRF is to find a cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D) and its complications through the support of research. We encourage you to pick up the gauntlet and share in the goal to cure, better treat and prevent T1D and and the debilitating side effects that come with it. If you challenge yourself to reach the fundraising minimum of your Walk, you will be helping us to get closer to a cure.
