Thank you so much for being part of this journey with me. Living with Type 1 diabetes for 17 years has shaped who I am — my strength, my resilience, and my perspective on life. Having your support means more than I can put into words. Every step we take and every dollar we raise helps create awareness, fund research, and move us closer to a future without T1D. I’m so grateful to walk this path with such an amazing team by my side.
My Story & why I’m raising money for Touched by Type 1!
I was 7 when I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I don’t remember life before finger pricks, carb counting and middle-of-the-night lows, but I do remember the people who made it feel less scary: my community. Type 1 never takes a day off, so neither do we. That’s why my team is called No Days Off T1D, and it’s why I walk: so no one has to feel alone with this, and so one day nobody has to live with it at all. On February 27, I’ll be walking around Lake Eola for the kid I was, and for every family hearing “type 1” for the first time.
Here's how you can help:
Donate: Contribute whatever you can. Every dollar counts!
Spread the Word: Share our fundraising page with your friends, family, and social networks. Let’s spread awareness so we can raise more!
Thank you so much for your support! We couldn’t do this without you!
