Thousands of people gathered at Genesee Valley Park, for The Step Out 5k Walk to Stop Diabetes. This event is the Rochester American Diabetes Association’s annual fundraising event, which aims toward raising money for diabetes education and research.
“Diabetes is the health epidemic of our day. 29 million Americans are diagnosed with diabetes, and the American Diabetes Association is unique in the fact that we fund research for Type 1 and Type 2, as well as offering community based programs for people living with diabetes,” said Peter Knappen, Rochester American Diabetes Association.
