Walk to Cure

So here is the deal. We all love Carter, we want to help him, but none of us are exactly medical experts on the brink of finding a cure for diabetes.

However, we can support those people who really are medical experts on the brink of finding a cure for diabetes. JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) is a wonderful organization that supports type 1 diabetes families. On Sunday, November 4, 2012, they are hosting a Walk to Cure Diabetes. Carter's whole family will be participating in the walk, but they need sponsors! Team Carter has a goal to donate at least $200 to this great cause, but we need YOUR help! Will you please donate? Every little bit helps!

$1 could get you four bubble gum balls at the machine in front of the grocery store OR it could help find a reliable way to help diabetic children receive their insulin without a shot.

$5 could get you a three tickets to a dollar theater movie showing (because, come on, we all know it isn't really $1) OR it could help examine diabetics' blood sample in an effort to understand the way insulin works in our bodies.

$10 could get you half a gallon of gas OR it could help fund prevention treatment for T1D. Also, anyone who donates $10 to Team Carter will receive a small thank you gift.

$20 could get you Taylor Swift's new album (in stores Oct. 23) OR it could help experts find a way to fix pancreas that no longer produce insulin. In addition, this level of a donation will provide an even sweeter thank you gift.

How can you donate? If you personally know the Whites or Montgomerys, talk to them! They know what to do.

If you don't know them, live too far away from them, or just don't want to see them (it's okay, if you donate, we won't be offended), click HERE!

Thank you so much! Let's fight diabetes, in any way we can!
