About Breakthrough T1D™ Walk (formerly JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes):
Breakthrough T1D Walk brings together Canadians from coast to coast to walk
together and raise funds to make type 1 diabetes (T1D) a part of history.
The first Walk was held in 1994 in three locations – Toronto, Hamilton and Ottawa –
and collectively raised $100,000. Since that inaugural year, the Walk has expanded
to hundreds of communities that have raised more than $146 million to support
T1D research over the last 33 years.
Naming convention:
It is very important that we utilize the official and full name of the event in our
communications to help us improve brand awareness and recognition. While we
may say Vancouver Walk or the Barrie Walk Committee when discussing internally –
