About the Walk to Cure Diabetes:
The annual TELUS Walk to Cure Diabetes unites communities across Canada to raise funds to cure, treat and prevent type 1 diabetes. The TELUS Walk is an outdoor celebration where families, friends and organizations can raise funds and awareness and make a difference in the lives of over 300,000 Canadians living with type 1 diabetes. JDRF’s signature fundraising event, the TELUS Walk raised over $7.5 million in 2011, thanks to the incredible efforts of participants, sponsors and volunteers. In 2012, JDRF, with your support, is targeting to raise $7.9 million through the TELUS Walk, directing more funds to research than ever before! |
