Toronto

Join us at the 2020 Sun Life Walk to Cure Diabetes for JDRF!

Join us for the Sun Life Walk to Cure Diabetes for JDRF and help raise funds for type 1 diabetes research! As the largest T1D event in Canada, this is more than just a Walk, it's an amazing experience filled with activities, entertainment and the celebration of coming together to change the future of type 1 diabetes forever. Because Walk participants are not defined by their disease, they are #MoreThanT1D.
