Says Connie Chiasson, MDI Group President, “MDI Group has always has a deep commitment to both volunteer and financial support of philanthropies around the globe and in the local markets we serve – it’s something that’s always been extremely important to our CEO Ella Koscik and each of our branch offices has really taken that corporate culture to heart in supporting causes that are meaningful to them. Our Dallas office felt strongly that the ADA Step Out event provided a significant opportunity to give back to the community in an interactive way to show their support and to help fight this disease that hits so close to home for many of us.”  

The nationwide Step Out events are part of the ADA’s larger ‘Stop Diabetes’ movement, dedicated to ending the devastating toll that diabetes takes on millions of individuals and families across the nation. ADA events are designed to inspire and mobilize the general public, volunteers, donors, corporations and the scientific and medical communities to rally around our cause and ADA’s call to "share, act, learn, and give." Through these actions, millions will have the chance to get involved and help raise awareness, promote healthy living, and raise money to fund educational outreach, advocacy efforts, and critical research that will ultimately stop diabetes once and for all.
