Join IREM Boston for the JDRF One Walk on October 1 in Boston
Boston, MA Each year, JDRF One Walk brings together thousands of people to change the future of everyone living with type 1 diabetes (T1D). And you can be one of those people! JDRF (formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) is a major charitable 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to funding type 1 diabetes research (T1D). JDRF's stated vision is “a world without type 1 diabetes.â€
Please join IREM on their team IREM Boston chapter No. 4 at this year’s event on Saturday, October 1.
JDRF’s Walk to Cure Diabetes program has raised over $1 billion since 1992, and has more than 600,000 participants each year.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which a person's pancreas loses the ability to produce insulin-a hormone essential to turning food into energy. It strikes both children and adults and is unrelated to diet and lifestyle. With T1D, there are no days off, and there is no cure-yet. JDRF funded $65.1 million (59.1% of its research funding) in cure therapy research.
That’s why JDRF supports the best researchers doing the most promising, cutting-edge science to cure, prevent and treat T1D.
Check-in begins at 9:30 a.m. and the walk starts at 10:30 a.m. at the DCR Hatch Shell, 47 David G. Mugar Way.
