JDRF One Walk has a single goal: creating a world without type 1 diabetes (T1D). We hope you'll join us as a volunteer this year as we walk and raise money for life-changing research for the millions affected by this devastating disease.
When you join in as a volunteer at one of the hundreds of JDRF One Walks across the country, you will be supporting JDRF-the leading global organization funding T1D research. And, you'll have a great time doing it! That's because you'll be a part of a walk with a committed community that is passionate about doing whatever it takes to help JDRF turn Type One into Type None.
We are looking to fill all types of volunteer roles on Saturday, October 1, indluding: Walker registration tent, food tent, t-shirt tent, walk route cheerleaders, children's activities tent and more!
We can't do it without you. Please contact Nichole Messier at nmessier@jdrf.org to sign up as a volunteer today.

Mission Statement
JDRF is the leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. JDRF’s goal is to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people’s lives until we achieve a world without T1D. JDRF collaborates with a wide spectrum of partners and is the only organization with the scientific resources, regulatory influence, and a working plan to better treat, prevent, and eventually cure T1D.
As the largest charitable supporter of T1D research, JDRF is currently sponsoring $568 million in scientific research in 17 countries. In 2012 alone, JDRF provided more than $110 million to T1D research.
Description
JDRF is the only global organization with a strategic plan to bring those living with T1D a continuous flow of life-changing therapies and, ultimately, a cure for the disease.
JDRF’s highest priority remains funding research to deliver a cure for T1D and its complications. At the same time, JDRF is also focused on developing better treatments that will transform the way people with T1D treat the disease today, in order to help them live healthier lives now and in the future. Finally, JDRF also seeks to prevent T1D, to keep future generations from developing the disease.
This is all part of JDRF’s promise of "less until none": to progressively remove the impact of T1D from the lives of those living with the disease until it is no longer a threat to them or their families.
