RALEIGH -- Hundreds of people stepped out to stop diabetes Saturday morning. The annual walk produced by the American Diabetes Association helps to generate funds to raise awareness for the disease and assist in fundraising for a cure.

Participants look forward to the event every year hoping to make a difference.

Currently there are nearly 26 million children and adults living with the disease in the United States. That's about 8.3 percent of the entire country.
