Step out to fight diabetes this September in Northampton |
|
Diabetes is a fast-growing, devastating disease that now affects nearly 24 million Americans. In fact, if present trends continue, one in three children born after 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetime. You can help change the future of diabetes by joining the American Diabetes Association's 2009 Step Out Walk to Fight Diabetes on Sept. 27 at Look Park in Northampton. Endocrinologist Dr. Jeffrey Korff will serve as the Honorary Chairman for the 2009 fundraising event.
Contact Laura Gervais, Associate Director at ADA at (877) 639-0385, Ext. 3537 or lgervais@diabetes.org if you are interested in forming a walk team, joining the planning committee, becoming a corporate sponsor or volunteering at this year's event. Free online registration and fundraising is available at diabetes.org/stepout
. The mission of the ADA is to prevent and cure diabetes and improve the lives of all people affected by the disease.
