The American Diabetes Association works everyday to
change the frightening future that diabetes has in store, but we need your help. Together we can stop diabetes. Take the first
step today by registering to walk in our local Step Out: Walk to Fight Diabetes event.
Every step you take and every dollar you
raise helps the American Diabetes Association provide education programs in our community, protect the rights of people with
diabetes and fund critical research for a cure. Once you register, use our online fundraising tools to create your personal
web page, email your friends, family and co-workers, accept online donations and raise more money to stop diabetes.
It's more fun
to Step Out together!
Gather your friends, family and co-workers
and form a Step Out team! It's a great way to do good together and share in a fun and healthy community experience. Teams
come in all sizes—two or more people make a team! Corporations, friends & family, clubs & organizations and
school groups build teams to walk for those who have been touched by diabetes. Get started today by selecting "Form
a Team!"
When you walk, you help us stop diabetes. Walking is one of the easiest, most relaxing
forms of exercise for many people, but especially for those living with diabetes. By participating in Step Out: Walk to Fight
Diabetes, you can get fit, reduce your risk for type 2 diabetes and support the American Diabetes Association!
Event Information
Get ready to Step
Out and take your first step in the fight against Diabetes! The Syracuse,
NY Step Out: Walk to Fight Diabetes will take place on Saturday, October 17th, bringing together families, companies,
organizations, and community groups to fundraise for a cure.
Step Out & Make A Difference
The day will kick off with music and inspiring stories of those who fight diabetes every day. Health information, coffee
and snacks, sponsor and vendor tents and American Diabetes Association materials will be available on location. After
an inspiring singing of the National Anthem, together we will take an invigorating 1, 2 or 3-mile walk through an
autumn landscape at Green Lakes State Park in Fayetteville. We will cross the finish line and recognize our success in
taking a significant step in the fight against diabetes!
The event is incredibly important for the sake of the cause, and we hope that you will make every effort possible to raise
funds for a cure. American Diabetes Association staff will work with you every step of the way.
Other Ways to Get Involved
If you are unable to walk or you just want to help,
there are many volunteer opportunities available. By volunteering, you can touch the lives of family, friends, co-workers
and anyone else in our community who lives with diabetes.
