Walk To Cure Diabetes

The 2010 Walk to Cure Diabetes was a Huge Success!

Thanks so much to all of you that participated in the 2010 Walk to Cure Diabetes that took place on Saturday, April 10th at the Jacksonville Fairgrounds. More than 4,000 came out to support JDRF and the mission to cure type 1 diabetes and its complications and together raised $550,000 to support research to help get us there!

Wow! On behalf of all the many children, adults and families that will experience greater control of their diabetes with advancements in research being made, THANK YOU! It’s because of your support we have the hope, belief and will one day have the reality of a cure for type 1 diabetes and its complications!
