About

Join us on Saturday, October 10, for an unforgettable evening of entertainment, inspiration, and impact!

Our 11 Stars will take to the dance floor to compete for the coveted Top Dancer Award, but the real competition is for the Top Fundraiser Award as they drive funds for type 1 diabetes research.

You can help make a difference. Show your support by purchasing tickets in honor of your favorite Star. Can’t attend on October 10th? Make a donation directly to your favorite Star’s effort right here!
