Organiser's Description
The Diabetes You Can Win Foundation, a proud Georgia-based non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, invites you to our 7th Annual 5K Walk for Diabetes, presented in collaboration with our valued partner, Live Healthy Gwinnett! This family-friendly event, taking place at Tribble Mill Park in Lawrenceville, GA, promises a day filled with educational resources, free health screenings, and plenty of fun for all ages.
Why is this walk so important? The statistics are stark: APPROXIMATELY 1 MILLION PEOPLE IN GEORGIA HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH DIABETES, AND A STAGGERING 230,000 MORE ARE LIVING WITH IT UNDIAGNOSED, significantly increasing their health risks. An additional 2.6 MILLION GEORGIANS HAVE PRE-DIABETES, a condition that can often be prevented from progressing to diabetes with proper lifestyle changes. These numbers highlight a critical need for awareness, education, and access to resources right here in our communities.
Your participation directly supports the vital work of the Diabetes You Can Win Foundation. We provide free health screenings, comprehensive diabetes and nutrition education classes, diabetes prevention programs, gestational diabetes education, and essential diabetic supplies to at-risk and under-resourced communities across Georgia. Every step you take and every dollar raised stays right here in Georgia, empowering our neighbors with the tools and knowledge to lead healthier lives.
Come together with your family and friends to walk for a cause that touches so many lives. Learn more, get screened, and have a fantastic day while making a tangible impact on the health of our state.
Lace up your shoes and register today for the 7th Annual 5K Walk for Diabetes!
