Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes

Listen up FYPers and PATAK!

Over 26 million children and adults in the U.S. have diabetes, 1/3 of them don’t know it, and over 79 million are pre-diabetic. Every 21 seconds someone in this country is diagnosed with diabetes. If current trends continue, 1 in 3 children born today will develop this chronic disease in their lifetime.

A study in the Houston metropolitan area concluded that Filipinos are at higher risk for type 2 diabetes than the U.S. non-Hispanic white population

(Diabetes Care, Vol. 24, Number 12, Dec. 2001).

We can do our part by walking together and raising money to help fund diabetes research, education advocacy. Bring your family, friends, and co-workers. Kids and dogs are also welcome!

WHERE: Minute Maid Park – 501 Crawford, Houston
WHEN: Saturday, November 19, 2011
TIME: 7:30 AM – Registration/Check-in Begins
