"BE SOMEONE’S HERO” and join the Diabetes Foundation of Mississippi! Come on out to Lyceum Loop on November 6 for Mississippi's Walk for Diabetes in Oxford! This year's theme is "BE SOMEONE'S HERO! The Diabetes Foundation will be walking to raise awareness about diabetes in Mississippi, to raise funds to support DFM programs and events, and to celebrate and remember those in Mississippi who have diabetes! Every dollar raised will stay in Mississippi to go toward the Diabetes Foundation's education and assistance programs, including Camp Kandu, the state's only camp for children with diabetes and their families, "Sweet Subject" school diabetes education, "We Care 2" backpacks for newly diagnosed children and assistance for needy Mississippians and more. Registration starts at 1:00 P.M. and the one-mile family fun run and 3.1 mile walk will begin at 2:00 P.M. We will have a free picnic lunch for participants immediately following!
