JDRF Walk Fundraiser Event

In June, members of the JDRF Centre of Excellence at UBC supported the JDRF Walk Fundraiser event in Stanley Park. This was the second time around the JDRF Centre was involved in this fantastic event raising awareness of type 1 diabetes research.

It was a great day for our scientific research team to meet, reconnect and engage with each other and the type 1 diabetes community.

In June 2022, Walk Month, the JDRF Centre of Excellence stepped up for the 300,000 Canadians living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to raise funds for T1D research. By supporting our fundraising, you will help fund ground-breaking diabetes research and provide the necessary support to those living with T1D and ensure they live healthier, safer and easier lives.

Every step is a step closer to a cure. Please help make a difference for the T1D community.


You can donate to our Walk Team here until the end of 2022
