Fundraiser for Type 1 Diabetes
On June 20th I am planning a zinc change fundraiser for Type 1 Diabetes. My daughter, Francesca, is doing a 50 Km walk along Sunshine Coast to raise money for Type 1 Diabetes. To support her I will come down and change zincs for $100 donations, she will be on hand to provide information on the walk and collect the donations or assist you with donating through the website.
If you would like to have your zincs changed please let me know via email ajbritton@shaw.ca

Shortest Cruise, ever
Just letting everyone know the CFSA Picnic Barge is once again moored in Jetstream Cove in the western part of Esquimalt Harbour: https://maps.app.goo.gl/7BA8jur82dnbWRra6
If you long for a short cruise, our Barge makes a great destination. Call KHM as usual before heading out, and watch out for the nearby rock to the east, marked by a white buoy.

I'm reaching out because I'm taking on a big challenge this year: I'm hiking 50 kilometers Sunshine Hut to Hut. It's to help other Type One Adults in support of Connected in Motion. an organization that has profoundly impacted my life as someone living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). I've had TID now for 32 years and was diagnosed at the age of 12.
As you might know, living with T1D means a constant balancing act – monitoring blood sugar, administering insulin, and navigating the unpredictable nature of an autoimmune disease. It's a 24/7 job. Connected in Motion understands this reality. They create incredible outdoor adventure programs and community events specifically for adults with T1D, fostering a sense of belonging, education, and empowerment that is truly invaluable.
Their programs have helped me gain confidence in managing my T1D during physical activity, learn new strategies for blood sugar management. This 50km hike isn't just about physical endurance for me; it's a testament to the strength and resilience I've built, thanks in large part to the support and new friends! I'm doing this hike with 9 other TID.
I'm fundraising to help them continue their vital work. Every dollar raised goes directly towards supporting these programs, ensuring more people with T1D can experience the life-changing impact of community and adventure.
Would you consider making a donation to support my hike and, in turn, help Connected in Motion? Any amount, big or small, makes a real difference.

Thank you for considering! Your support means the world to me and to the entire T1D community that Connected in Motion serves.
Warmly,
Francesca ♥️♥️
