Raising funds for T1D research can be done anywhere, anytime!

As a family affected greatly by T1D, the Trojak Family is excited to announce that their daughter, Katharine, 20, of Bucks County, PA be running in the London Half Marathon on August 1^st on behalf of Breakthrough T1D.  Katie is not new to Breakthrough T1D or T1D. “It is complicated, challenging, and above all, terrifying. I would do almost anything for a cure. Breakthrough T1D has been there every step of the way with resources, support, and always searching for a cure. And one day, we will create a world without type 1 diabetes,” Katie said.

In the past, Katie has worked with Breakthrough T1D and even had a chance to advocate for government funding on Capitol Hill in 2015. So, when she decided to run the London Half Marathon, she knew she had to run for Breakthrough T1D in advance of the 100-year anniversary of insulin.

The Greater Delaware Valley Chapter is excited to have a local Breakthrough T1D supporter participating in the London Half Marathon. Join us in celebrating Katie and wishing her the best of luck on August 1^st   London Half Marathon!  Please consider supporting Katie & Breakthrough T1D by donating here!
