National Teams

JDRF One Walk is the world's largest event for the T1D community, uniting thousands annually. Since it’s inception, the program has raised more than $1 billion for T1D research. It's more than a walk; it's a community rallying to enhance lives and pursue cures. Companies with a nationwide presence are perfect candidates to start a JDRF One Walk National Team, opening new possibilities for those living with T1D.

National Teams allow companies with a broad U.S. presence to support T1D research both locally and nationally, fostering company-wide pride and connecting colleagues across different locations. Joining as a National Team demonstrates your commitment to community impact.

National Team participants have the opportunity to set and achieve fitness goals, tracking progress through fitness apps or devices, like Strava. National Team partners can set fitness goals and track their team’s progress, seamlessly tying into a health and wellness program.

As a National Team, you will receive dedicated support from local JDRF staff as well as a National Partner to help set team goals, develop fundraising strategies, and track progress, ensuring a unified effort across all company locations.

Participation as a National Team offers significant benefits: enhancing employee morale, creating lasting memories, and boosting your brand's philanthropic profile. Interested in forming a National Walk Team? Contact Clara Clark at cclark@jdrf.org for more details.
