Diabetes Walk

Together we can Stop Diabetes. One Step at a Time


Schwenn Services sponsored Mary Burch in the walk to stop diabetes in Baldwin Park, FL November 7, 2011. Mary and her team of 16 were walking and raising funds for the American Diabetes Association’s signature fundraising walk, Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes. Every step we take and every dollar we raise will make a difference in the lives of 25.8 million Americans living with diabetes.

Mary and her team were walking for a close friend six year old Emmy. “Emmy is one of the many children living with diabetes and we need to find answers for young children like her,” stated Mary. Team Emma was able to raise a total of $1400 dollars and bring even more awareness to the community. Great job Mary and Team Emmy!
