JDRF Virtual One Walk!

Autumn is the time of year when we, as a studio and performing family, begin to fundraise and prepare for the JDRF 1 Walk, to support and honor those living with Type 1 diabetes (TD1), especially those who we know and love. This year, due to the many alterations that need to be observed for social events, the JDRF Walk will be held as a virtual walk and will extend throughout the whole month of October.

From JDRF:

“We may not be together in person this year, but we will still come together as one community to walk the distance for the 1.6 million Americans living with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Join walkers from all over the country for an unforgettable nation-wide effort that unites us no matter where we are. You set the pace, the place, the number of miles and the dollars you raise with friends, family and colleagues. Together, we can improve lives and change the future for everyone living with this disease.”

GPA will be forming a 2020 studio team this year; however, all fundraising and walking will be virtual. Are you interested in getting involved? See your options below!
