Breakthrough T1D Family Night with the Milwaukee Bucks

About

Join Breakthrough T1D for an unforgettable evening at Fiserv Forum on Friday, November 14, as we celebrate World Diabetes Day and raise awareness during National Diabetes Awareness Month. Bring your family and friends to cheer on the Milwaukee Bucks while helping Breakthrough T1D accelerate progress toward a world without type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Special game night perks include group ticket pricing for the Breakthrough T1D community, special recognition throughout the night, and the opportunity to connect with local families, riders, walkers, and supporters united for T1D progress. To purchase your tickets today, click here.

As part of this special night, we’re also inviting you to share your own Breakthrough story for a chance to take the spotlight at center court and deliver the game ball. In honor of National Diabetes Awareness Month, the Breakthrough to Center Court Essay Contest gives one inspiring storyteller the opportunity to shine—on and off the court.

To enter, write a short essay (300–500 words) answering the prompt: “How has Breakthrough T1D made an impact on your life, and why is raising awareness for T1D during National Diabetes Awareness Month important to you?” Essays will be judged on personal connection to T1D, passion for the mission, and clarity, originality, and authenticity.

The prize includes delivering the official game ball at center court during the captain’s meeting, meeting both team captains and referees, and receiving two tickets to Breakthrough T1D Night at the Bucks game on Friday, November 14. The contest is open to ages six and up, and the winner must be able to walk onto the court (a chaperone may attend but cannot enter the court).

Submit your essay by October 26 for your chance to experience this unforgettable MVP moment. Entries can be submitted, here!
