Deloitte invites you to join us and other leaders in the business community at a breakfast to learn more about JDRF’s mission and the upcoming JDRF One Walk event, and how you and your company can make an impact. Deloitte and Kathleen Candela are honored to share that this year Kathleen will serve as Corporate Chair for the 2019 JDRF One Walk in Illinois.

“I’ve had the privilege to be involved with JDRF for over 20 years and am honored to take on this role.  Leading walk teams for over 20 years, I am excited to take my role to another level to make the biggest impact on the type one diabetes (T1D) community.  Please join me and Deloitte in making a difference in so many lives. “ -  Kathleen Candela, JDRF Board Member, mother of 13 year old Ben who was diagnosed with T1D at age 4, and sister to 31 year old Dan who was diagnosed at age 9.  

Together we can help create a world without T1D.

Last year in Illinois, over 30,000 participants walked in support of JDRF’s mission of funding research to create a world without T1D and collectively raised $4 million for JDRF and T1D research. JDRF’s mission is to improve lives today and tomorrow by accelerating life-changing breakthroughs to cure, prevent and treat T1D and its complications. That is why Deloitte is walking with JDRF and raising money to make living with T1D safer and healthier, until it is no longer a threat.
