In My Community

Corporate Kickoff
The American Diabetes Association is making an everyday difference in the fight against diabetes. You and your company can help by getting involved in the Association's Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes. The Walk is a great way to encourage a healthy, active life-style while raising critical dollars needed to stop diabetes.

Join the Association and members of the community at our Corporate Kickoff Breakfast. At the Breakfast, you will not only learn more about diabetes and how it affects your company's bottom line, but you will also have the opportunity to hear directly from a local volunteer who will discuss how diabetes affects each and every one of us. There are kickoffs in Bridgewater, Franklin Lakes and Princeton. Check out the dates below. To register or to learn more, contact Erin Geiger at 732-469-7979 ext. 3516 or egeiger@diabetes.org.
