Each year, thousands of people participate in American Diabetes Association events and fundraisers to increase awareness of diabetes and raise needed funds.
In addition to promoting these events, the Association provides information through community-based programs to empower people to manage their disease so they can prevent the onset of complications.
In this section, you will learn about community-based programs and nationwide campaigns that occur annually. Many other successful campaigns take place within a region each year, from black tie galas and golf tournaments to other sporting events and raffles.
