Step Out to Fight Diabetes Walk – Saturday, Sept. 29th
Formerly known as America’s Walk for Diabetes, Step Out to Fight Diabetes is the fund-raising walk of the American Diabetes Association(ADA). All funds raised from Step Out to Fight Diabetes are used in support of the Association’s mission: to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.
Step Out to Fight Diabetes is a one-day walk that was born as the result of the need to take greater action in the fight against diabetes. The walk route follows the 2.7-mile paved pedestrian path around Bailey Bay in Seward Park, home to some 40 different species of bird, including eagles, woodpeckers, and owls, culminating at the shoreline of the park with a wonderful, fun filled party for friends and family to celebrate the day.
Gather all of your family, friends and co-workers and come out to help us raise funds to find a cure for a disease affecting more than 20.8 million Americans. With your help, we can provide research, programs, education and advocacy efforts for all people living with and affected by diabetes.
