As the leading global type 1 diabetes (T1D) research and advocacy organization, Breakthrough T1D has played a crucial role in nearly every major T1D breakthrough in history. No organization does more to improve everyday life with T1D—from therapy development and access, to expanding research, advocacy, and community support. Breakthrough T1D Walk is the world’s largest fundraising and community-building event for the T1D community. By joining Breakthrough T1D Walk, you will help us create a movement to improve and change life with type 1 diabetes, advancing life-changing breakthroughs on the way to cures. Join us at the Shops at South Town on May 17th to celebrate the T1D community, enjoy free activities for all ages, and build community. Living with or having a connection to T1D is NOT required! Register as a participant (FREE!) or as a volunteer here: https://www2.breakthrought1d.org/site/TR/Walk/MountainWestChapter4072?pg=entry&fr_id=9952

NAMI Utah (the National Alliance on Mental Illness), a nonprofit that provides hope and community for people whose lives are impacted by mental illness, is holding the NAMI Utah Walk! Hundreds of Utahns will gather at this annual fundraiser and outreach event to celebrate Mental Health for All, to honor loved ones, and to bring visibility to the mental health crisis. The Walk is a demonstration that no one walks alone in their mental health journey. There will be snacks, a music DJ, yoga, a resource fair, kids’ activities, a dog costume contest and “good dog” trick competition, guest speakers, and more! https://www.namiwalks.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.event&eventID=1834
