Five Lamorinda girls between the ages of 8 and 11 who live with Type 1 Diabetes have raised over $38,000 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's (JDRF) annual OneWalk to find a cure for T1D.
Lily Griffin, age 10 (Lafayette), Haddie Kellenberger, age 11 (Orinda), Laila Lam, age 10 (Lafayette), Petra Nadjawi, age 8 (Orinda), and Eva Sway, age 11 (Orinda) formed a team, the East Bay Warriors, to fundraise together for Northern California's annual OneWalk that took place on Nov. 5 at Great America in Santa Clara. They ranked fifth overall in Northern California for the amount they raised, coming behind two colossal companies, Salesforce and PWC, that also had teams at Norcal's annual OneWalk. Last year, the East Bay Warriors also participated in the OneWalk and ranked first in fundraising. The team included three other girls from Oakland, Palo Alto, and Modesto.
JDRF has funded research that has made huge strides in the management of Type 1 Diabetes. The girls and their families are determined to find a cure, and JDRF's annual OneWalk is a meaningful way to realize their dream.
