 | As many as 3 million Americans have type 1 diabetes, a disease most diagnosed in childhood that strikes suddenly, lasts a lifetime, and carries the constant threat of often deadly complications, including heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney failure, and amputation. JDRF's mission is constant: to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. Thanks to dramatic research progress, a cure is now within our reach. The Walk draws people together in a healthy activity for a worthy cause, raising money to help find a cure for diabetes. It's fun for families and builds camaraderie among company employees. Above all, it's an event you will feel good about being a part of. To learn more about the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, please visit www.jdrf.org.
