This year’s Breakthrough T1D One Walk was an incredible reminder of the passionate commitment of our community of participants and volunteers. Thank you to everyone who helped make it a truly memorable event.  To date, we have raised nearly $1.4M for diabetes research.

So, what’s next? We are close to our goal of $1.57M, and we’re hoping you can help us get there.

We encourage you to share your experience with your donors and thank them. Follow up with anyone who may not have contributed to your fundraising efforts just yet. Visit your Participant Center where you can find prepared emails to help tell your family, friends, and coworkers about the event and how there’s still time to donate. If you were not able to participate in the Breakthrough T1D One Walk this year, but would like to make a gift to support the efforts, please go to walk.jdrf.org/twincities2019.

Share your favorite event photos on social media too with #JDRFOneWalk #TwinCities. Sharing your experience can inspire others to donate, or even join you next year! Our community is powerful and inspirational because of YOU! Together, we will accomplish so much together.
