There are two ways you can help fight this disease! First, you can buy a “Cure Diabetes” bracelet during lunch any time this week. Bracelets cost $1.
Secondly, if you’d like to participate in their walk, it will take place on Sunday, October 27 at 10 am at Warminster Community Park. Visit www.walk.JDRF.org, or see Mrs. Higgins in room 237.
