Some tips for raising money from national JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes team award-winners:

• Set more ambitious goals than you think possible
  
  
• Rally your entire school to help with your team
  
  
• Ditto: Your parents can rally their entire companies to join
  
  
• Ditto, your entire family: from Great-Aunt Mathilda to cousin Mildred
  
  
• Don't limit your team to your area: Enlist family and friends in other parts of the country as well
  
  
• Find a family member or friend who can match donations
  
  
• Don't forget to encourage donors to take advantage of their own corporations' matching gifts programs.
