Do you know a passionate young leader who wants to make a difference in the type 1 diabetes (T1D) community? We’re excited to announce that applications are now open for the 2025–2026 Twin Cities Walk Ambassador Program!
The Twin Cities Walk Ambassadors play an important role in inspiring our community and representing the Breakthrough T1D Walk. Ambassadors share their personal T1D stories, encourage fundraising, and help bring energy, connection, and hope to our Walk season.
Who Can Apply?
To be considered for the Twin Cities Walk Ambassador Program, applicants must:
- Be between the ages of 12–18 years old
- Have participated in at least one year of the Walk with proven fundraising success
- Have a positive outlook on life and diabetes
- Be comfortable speaking in front of crowds about their T1D journey and Walk experience
- Receive parental permission and support, including transportation to events
- Commit to participating for the full Walk season (November 2025 – June 2026)
This is a fantastic leadership opportunity for youth in our community to share their voices and help inspire progress toward a world without T1D.
