The JDRF walk is very personal to Structures because one of our own employees, Sean Blanck, has a daughter, Cheyenne, with Type 1 diabetes (T1D). Cheyenne would love to have a large group walking together on her team at the JDRF walk and all wearing a team shirt with the artwork she chose.
The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) is the leading global organization funding promising, life-changing T1D research. It’s their goal to progressively remove the impact of the disease from people’s lives until we achieve a world without T1D. To learn more about JDRF visit their website.
Cheyenne’s Story – When Cheyenne was only three years old, her life changed forever when she was diagnosed with T1D. Cheyenne is now 11 years old and living and thriving despite her Type 1. Learn more about Cheyenne’s story here and watch her video. Please join us in making Cheyenne’s vision of a large team come true by signing up to join the team. Structures is committed to purchasing 70 team shirts and will match the first $2500 raised. Shirts will be available for pickup at Structures’ office the week before the walk. If you can’t walk, please donate on the team page and help spread the word. Don’t forget to also like Cheyenne’s Warriors’ Facebook page!
