The Event:
Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes benefits the American Diabetes Association and is the signature one-day, fundraising and awareness walk taking place in 121 cities across the United States.

The day of Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes is a party to celebrate

improving the lives of all those affected by diabetes, and to one day finding a cure. Dollars raised through Step Out help fund research to prevent, cure and manage diabetes; deliver services to hundreds of communities; provide objective and credible information; and give a voice to those denied their rights because of diabetes.

We are Stepping Out because we are proud to do our part to Stop Diabetes. We decided to team up to change the future and make a positive impact in the lives of those who are affected by diabetes. We are committed to walk and raise money in this inspirational event not because 26 million people in the United States have diabetes, but because we personally know some of them, and want to do something about it.
Chances are, you also know someone who has been affected by diabetes and you already know how important it is to stop this disease. By making a donation or joining our team, you will be helping the Association provide community-based education programs, protect the rights of people with diabetes and fund critical research for a cure.
As a team, united in our desire to Stop Diabetes, we are asking for your support. 1 of our team members has Diabetes herself as well as having Diabetes in our families. Please make a donation to one of our team members or become one of us by joining our team, we are Team Mountain Guru. When we bring together dedicated team members and kind donors, the power we have as a group far outweighs what any of us could do alone. 
We truly appreciate your support. Together we can Stop Diabetes!

Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes: Richmond, VA

Check out my Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes: Richmond, VA page. I'm raising money and walking to Stop Diabetes. Diabetes runs in my family and many of my friends and my fiance' and her grandmother also have Diabetes. This is an important cause to me and I'm raising money for Diabetes for the American Diabetes Association. My goal is $200 so help me reach my goal and support a great cause as well as help raise money for research on Diabetes to stop it. On 13 October 2012 I will be walking in the Stop Diabetes Walk in Richmond, VA and I'm excited about it. Thank you everyone who supports me in this.
