To our community and our partners: Thank you

July 24, 2020

This past June, we came together and rallied to get loud and raise funds for a world without type 1 diabetes. Despite the physical distance between us, our digital world allowed us to reach out to you through our biggest virtual house party yet – Sun Life Walk to Cure Diabetes for JDRF as the JDRF House ParT1D for a Cure, presented by Omnipod.  

Thanks to your incredible support, you helped raise over $2 million dollars for critical funds that will support cutting edge research and meaningful community programming. A HUGE thank you!  

By joining the JDRF House ParT1D for a Cure you helped support breakthroughs that get us closer to a cure and provide hope to the millions affected by this disease. Your fundraising dollars are helping support remarkable research projects, including a 3D-printed bio-artificial pancreas, stem cell technology and transplant advances.   

YOU joined a community dedicated to uniting to support the millions of people living with T1D. And together,  we made a difference.   

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our sponsors, who helped make the House ParT1D a success and allowing us to surpass our fundraising goal. With their support, we were able to offer an incredible day filled with entertainment, celebrities, inspirational stories, research updates from the experts and so much more. 

Thank you to all of our sponsors who allowed us to host Canada’s largest house party turning type one diabetes into type none.  

We are incredibly grateful to our partners, and the entire T1D community for their commitment and support as we work together to move type 1 diabetes research forward faster than ever. All funds will move us further along our journey of uncovering better treatments and cures for those living with T1D and bring us closer to a world without T1D. We can’t wait to see you next year!  

Thank you to our corporate champions…
