JDRF is pleased to announce their Walk to Cure Diabetes Team Captain Kick-off Luncheon will take place on July 23rd at The Cornhusker Hotel. The JDRF Lincoln Walk to Cure Diabetes brings people together in a healthy activity for a worthy goal. The Walk is fun for families and builds camaraderie among company employees. It provides hope, empowerment and a sense of community.

The goal of JDRF is to improve the lives of every person affected by T1D by accelerating progress on the most promising opportunities for curing, better treating, and preventing the disease.
