Young Leadership Committee (YLC)

The New York City Chapter YLC has already had an inpiring start to the New Year! As a part of the growing efforts to support Breakthrough T1D, the group has launched of an official YLC website, introduced a “T1D Talks” Instagram campaign, hosted a Soul Cycle fundraising event, and much more. Beyond this, the YLC is excited to host their annual spring fundraiser, One Night; further contributing to their annual goal of raising $165,000 for type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. One Night 2017 will be held on Thursday, May 18, 2017 from 7-11pm at Marquee New York.

The YLC is comprised of ambitious young professionals in the greater NYC region, who share the same mission of treating, preventing, and ultimately curing T1D. YLC’s approach is simple: Put the “Fun” back into fundraising, through various events throughout the year where they bring together great individuals for exciting and impactful events.
