DYF Corporate Sponsorship Opportunities
The Diabetic Youth Foundation is supported by gifts from individuals, corporations and foundations. This critical support provides essential funding that enables the DYF to care for children, teens and families whose lives have forever changed after being diagnosed with diabetes. Fees for all our programs cover less than 60% of their actual cost. Corporate sponsorships aid the organization to keep our fees as low as possible and allow the DYF to offer life-saving opportunities and experiences through our diabetes education and recreation programs.
For more information regarding sponsorship opportunities, please contact the Diabetic Youth Foundation at 925-680-4994 or info@dyf.org

Families in the Forest Walk
Congratulations to all of the families that participated in both the Bay Area and the first ever Sacramento Families in the Forest Walks.
We raised almost $60,000!!!
The Bay Area walk on March 15th had a few sprinkles but it did not deter the 100 plus families from having a great time at Shadow Cliff Park in Pleasanton. Everyone gathered for an opening program lead by Mats Wallin, Executive Director and Kyle Eisenberg, camp counselor. The opening program highlights included hearing about why DYF is so important to so many. A few tears of gratitude were shed. Following the walk Eric Planzer and Kyle lead the families in camp songs. A delicious barbeque lunch, prepared by the Stanislaus Sheriff’s Deputy Association, followed the walk.
Two weeks later the first ever walk was held at Sacramento’s, William Land Park. The sun shined on over 200 participants who gathered to connect with their Bearskin family. The opening program highlights included Mats talking to the walkers about the importance of their fundraising efforts and the difference it makes to DYF. The walkers then stroller around a one mile loop returning to a picnic lunch and kids play area. The kids bounce house was a big hit.
A heartfelt thank you to the Bay Area and Sacramento Planning Committee Members!
The exact dates and locations for our 2010 events have not been set. For more information or for volunteer opportunities, please call the DYF office at 925.680.4994 or email info@dyf.org
