I have registered for The Walk to Cure Diabetes

Hmm, I looked at the pledge form last night and I thought it said something about CDN cheques.. I will check into it a bit more closely though!

Either way, if you send me something and I put your info on the pledge form, you should receive something back that has the receipt in it. Donations over $20 get a tax receipt, but I'm not sure if it would apply to people in the USA!

I got in touch with one of the event organizers. Cheques/ cash/ money orders all have to be in Canadian funds, and then credit card donations can be made online and the adjustment will show up on your credit card statement.

Thank you for helping out such a needed & valuable charity. I am truly sorry you are stricken with such a disease. I would love to donate but I also walk! This year will be year #5 for me. My nephew was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 2. Our team name is "Kyles Krew". I wish you the best of luck with your walk!

Thanks, good luck for yours as well!

I got my first donations this week! I have $80 USD, so I have to convert it to CDN dollars.

If anyone would like to donate, please contact me - my team goal is $500 so I still have a long way to go!

Thank you for what you are doing.
You will be walking for me as well.

Hi everyone. I just thought I would give an update. This weekend I am holding a fundraising "Passion Party where if we sell over $1000 of product, we will keep 50% of the profits. Our consultant is amazing. We are also still collecting pledges if anyone would be able to contribute

It would mean a lot to me since I live with this disease every day, and every little bit helps! The JDRF is a worldwide organization, so all the money collected is to the benefit of everyone with Type 1 diabetes, not just people in Canada.

Thanks!
