Their Story: Why They're Lacing Up
D'arci Sutton
My grandfather was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes when I was 8 years old and I began volunteering with DC as a way to show support to him. I'm hosting the walk to promote active lifestyle and physical health, to raise awareness in the community for diabetes, to bolster fundraising efforts for the cause, and, on a personal note, I host the walk in support/memory of friends and family who live/lived with diabetes. My goal is to raise as many funds for research as possible and put on a successful event for the community to enjoy.
