This year, Diabetes Canada is asking for Community Champions to organize their own Lace Up walks. A Community Champion would be responsible for picking a location for the 5 km walk and getting other people involved with the walk. This could be anyone, your family, friends, coworkers, church members. By becoming a Community Champion and creating and going on your own Lace Up walk, you will be joining thousands of people across the country to helping fight diabetes by raising awareness and possible donations while also getting some fresh air!

If you are interested in becoming a Community Champion, please look over these steps outlining the process of how your efforts as a Community Champions would need to be used, while also showing what support Diabetes Canada will provide you.

If you have any questions about becoming a Community Champion, please feel free to email the Lace Up team members in the Community Champion step outline.
