If your child received Rufus, (the bear with diabetes), when you were first diagnosed, bring him to the Breakthrough T1D One Walk to reunite him with the rest of his Rufus friends while you meet other T1D’s just like you!

Children are encouraged to dress Rufus in fun and exciting ways! Maybe Rufus is a superhero in your child’s eyes, or perhaps he’s a pirate. Maybe your child wants to use Rufus to show that playing any sport is possible wearing your T1D devices. Find unique and exciting ways to give Rufus his own personality and the best dressed Rufus will win a $50 Amazon gift card!

Stop by the New Family Tent to enter the Rufus costume contest. Here you can also pick up for #T1DLooksLikeMe Bandana (for all T1D’s) and new family team drawstring bag (for families new to the Breakthrough T1D One Walk)!

We look forward to seeing you & Rufus at the Breakthrough T1D One Walks
on October 13th (Columbus) and October 20th (Atlanta)!
