ADA fundraising walk supports services, programs, advocacy, and education

Step Out to Fight Diabetes is the fund-raising walk of the American Diabetes

Association (ADA). All funds raised from Step Out to Fight Diabetes are used in support
of the Association’s mission: to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.

Such a walk was held on Oct. 20, 2007 at the Toledo Botanical Garden, where hundreds
participated in a 2K walk.
