Event Highlights
Location: Tribble Mill Park | Lawrenceville, GA Who: Walkers, runners, families, and friends of all ages What to Expect: A scenic 5K walk, free health screenings, vital educational resources, and engaging activities for the whole family! Why We Walk: The Urgent Need in Georgia
Diabetes is an epidemic that touches nearly every corner of our state. Your steps help us confront these staggering local statistics: 1 million Georgians are currently diagnosed with diabetes. 230,000 individuals are living with diabetes undiagnosed, facing severe, unmonitored health risks. 2.6 million Georgians have pre-diabetes—a condition that can be halted or reversed with the right tools, lifestyle changes, and education.
Your Impact Stays Local
When you participate, every step you take and every dollar raised stays right here in Georgia. Your support directly funds the Diabetes You Can Win Foundation's vital, life-changing programs for at-risk and under-resourced communities, including:
Free Health Screenings for early detection and prevention. Comprehensive Nutrition & Diabetes Classes to empower healthier living. Diabetes Prevention Programs designed to stop pre-diabetes in its tracks. Gestational Diabetes Education to support healthy mothers and babies. Essential Diabetic Supplies distributed to neighbors in need.
Lace Up and Make a Difference!
Come together with your community to walk for a cause that impacts millions. Get screened, learn valuable health tools, and enjoy a fantastic day outdoors while empowering our neighbors to live healthier, fuller lives.
