Meet Izzy 💙
Just four days before her 6th birthday, a fun trip to the waterpark turned into an ICU stay and a Type 1 Diabetes diagnosis. Since that day, Izzy has faced every high, low, finger prick, and site change with unbelievable courage.

She never walks this journey alone—her incredible support system shows up for her every single day, and they proudly walked beside her at the 2025 Pittsburgh Breakthrough T1D Walk to cheer on their girl. Join us in celebrating Izzy's OmniSquad! 👟

For people like Meri in Western PA, building awareness and understanding about T1D is more important than ever. When we see T1D, we move closer to life-changing breakthroughs in research, advocacy, and support—helping people with T1D live fuller, healthier lives as we drive toward cures.

Today, we are leading the way to more effective solutions. Tomorrow, we will make this condition a thing of the past. We move to a future without T1D for people like Claire, a student in West Virginia.
