2026 Party with 1 Purpose

On Saturday, October 17, join us at the Basketball Hall of Fame for Party With 1 Purpose — an inspiring evening of celebration, connection, and impact in support of Breakthrough T1D and its mission to cure type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Led by Family Chairs, David Jr. and Sarah Fontaine, whose daughter Grace lives with T1D, this event brings together community members, advocates, and supporters for a night dedicated to advancing life-changing research and improving lives. Guests will enjoy delicious food and drinks, exciting auction packages, live entertainment, and powerful stories from families affected by T1D.
This year, we are proud to honor the Batchelor Family as our Family Honoree in recognition of their commitment to the T1D community and their support of Breakthrough T1D’s mission.
We are also honored to feature The Hedges Family as our Fund A Cure Family. Through sharing their personal journey with T1D, The Hedges Family will help illustrate the daily realities of living with T1D and inspire guests to support the critical research and breakthroughs that bring us closer to cures.
Whether you are a returning guest or joining us for the first time, we invite you to Party With 1 Purpose and help create a future without T1D.
