Walk Totals.....$800,000

The preliminary totals for the East Bay Walk for a Cure to Diabetes are in....We raised $800,000! With pledges and other money still rolling in, that figure is sure to grow.

Of the total, family teams accounted for $335,000! So far, Team Shelby has officially collected $6,261. We were the 29th team overall in fund-raising, 13th among family teams. This year, there were 93 walk teams that each raised $1,000 or more.

This is a wonderful effort. In years past, the Bay Area chapter of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation has raised about $2 million annually with its local walks. The amount of positive research into the causes and cures of Type I diabetes this amount of money will fund is just amazing.

Each member of Team Shelby is part of the solution. We are once again humbled and thankful for your support. Join us in celebrating our success!
