Join TEAM TAYLOR in the 2010 Walk to Cure Diabetes

Dear Friend,

I'm writing to tell you that I'll be walking in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's Walk to Cure Diabetes this year, and to ask you to join me.

Taking part in the Walk is great experience. Not only will you be making a real difference in helping to find a cure that will change the lives of millions... you'll be having FUN, and getting a good workout too!

First, let me tell you a little about why this cause is so important.
Every year, at least 30,000 new cases of type 1 diabetes--the most severe form of the disease--are diagnosed in the United States alone, a large and growing percentage of them children. Day-to-day living is a challenge for people with type 1 diabetes--and multiple insulin injections are only the beginning. But what's even harder is facing the reality of the devastating complications that can stem from their condition.

As you can imagine, it's easy for people with type 1 diabetes to feel that their future is uncertain. But thanks to research funded by organizations such as JDRF, people with diabetes have a new sense of hope. Scientists are making tremendous progress toward a cure for type 1 diabetes.

That's why this is such a crucial time, and why I'm asking you to join me in walking, and raising money that will speed these scientists toward that cure. Every walker, and every dollar, brings us that much closer.

So please, come join me for this very special day... and a chance to make a real difference!

I'll be walking at Gring's Mill Recreation Area, Reading, PA on October 17, 2010. You can find out more and sign up at:  http://walk.jdrf.org/walker.cfm?id=87746350

Thank you,

Taylor
