An Inspiring Evening Blending Art and Advocacy for Diabetes Awareness
ORLANDO, FL, UNITED STATES, November 8, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Touched by Type 1 proudly announces the 24th Annual Dancing for Diabetes, a remarkable showcase dedicated to raising awareness and support for nearly 1.9 million American children and adults living with Type 1 Diabetes. This highly anticipated event will take place on November 16, 2024, at the stunning Steinmetz Hall in Orlando, FL. Tickets are on sale now and are expected to sell quickly.
The Dancing for Diabetes showcase began in 2001 in a driveway as a dream of Elizabeth Forrest, who was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 10. Since its humble beginnings, the event has grown tremendously, moving through several venues to accommodate its expanding audience. Over the years, the showcase has transformed into a powerful platform, not only providing breathtaking performances but also serving as a beacon of inspiration and encouragement for the Type 1 community.
This year’s event promises an unforgettable evening of entertainment and hope, featuring award-winning and nationally recognized dancers. It serves as a vital part of Touched by Type 1’s mission to elevate awareness about the impact of Type 1 Diabetes and to provide positive experiences for those affected. The funds raised from this event will directly support programs and services for those living with Type 1 Diabetes in Orlando and across the country.
Elizabeth Forrest, Founder of Touched by Type 1, stated, We are committed to elevating awareness about the impact of Type 1 Diabetes and providing positive experiences for those touched by type 1 diabetes. Our annual Dancing for Diabetes event is a testament to the strength and resilience of the Type 1 community, and we are proud to bring together such extraordinary dancers to support our cause.
