We had a school sponsored walk in the Wolcott School neighborhood and raised $5,345.00 for research and our own awareness of Diabetes. 

Thanks to Wolcott Nurse Diane Mancuso and PE teacher Beth Richard and the many students and parents who collected money and then walked on a VERY rainy Saturday in April.  

Thank you all for your support of this worthy cause. 

Did you know?

• In the past few years several children at Wolcott have had Juvenile Diabetes

• Diabetes kills one American every three minutes

• 16 million Americans have the disease

• Diabetes afflicts 120 million people worldwide

• A new case of diabetes is diagnosed every 40 seconds
