We hope you’re getting excited for the 2026 Breakthrough T1D Walk, Portland, OR scheduled for Sunday, October 11 at Tualatin Community Park!

We have a couple of exciting opportunities for fundraising teams this year that we want to highlight:

  • Breakthrough Mile: The Portland Walk route will come alive with signs honoring our T1D champions for teams who raise at least $1,500.
    • Each sign will pay tribute to someone’s journey with type 1 diabetes.
    • Take home your sign and place it in your yard.
    • Deadline to hit fundraising level and photos due by September 21.
  • Team Tents: Teams that raise $3,500 or more will earn a spot in our exclusive VIP Team Village. This is a fantastic place for your entire group to gather and celebrate your fundraising efforts.
    • Includes a 10×10 tent, one 6’ table, and two chairs.
    • Tent will feature a Breakthrough T1D Banner with Team Name.
    • Decorate your tent to show your walk team spirit.
    • Deadline to hit fundraising level is September 21.

Fundraising tip! Customize your team shirts through Breakthrough T1D’s partnership with Bonfire. Plus, proceeds from your t-shirt order will be credited to your team’s fundraising goal, helping you make an even bigger impact!
