I'm walking for a world without type one diabetes

I'm walking to support groundbreaking type 1 diabetes research in Sydney!

I went into DKA and was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes six months ago. I thought this event could be a good opportunity for me to begin supporting T1D research, walking in the world's largest type 1 diabetes (T1D) fundraising event while I’m living in Sydney this year.  

Why? To help raise $1.1 million for life-changing T1D research! This diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break, and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy. I feel so grateful to have the support and resources that I do, but I know that’s not always the case. Insurance, insulin, and devices can all be extremely expensive. 

There’s an overwhelming amount of important causes to put your time, effort, and money towards right now. If anyone feels called to donate to this specific fundraiser, thank you! 🩵
