News Brief: Walk to raise money for Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation
The 14th Annual Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Walk for a Cure will be held on the University of Nevada, Reno campus from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday. Registration for the event begins at 8 a.m. on the quad.
The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation is a nonprofit organization devoted to raising money for diabetes research. Last year, the Walk for a Cure event raised $550,000, with 86 percent of that money going directly to research.
There will be refreshment stations along the 8-kilometer course and participants are welcome to walk, run or jog. After the walk, Qdoba and Jack in the Box will provide free lunch. Free hot air balloon rides will also be available.
