World Diabetes Day is held annually on November 14th and kids from local schools in Humboldt showed their support.

St. Augustine and St. Dominic schools in Humboldt showed their true colors on World Diabetes Day by wearing the color symbolic to Diabetes awareness, as kids and staff arrived at school that day wearing blue. 

World Diabetes Day also coincided two days after Duke Brochu, who is a student at St. Dominic school that is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, held his annual Skate-a-Thon at the Elgar Peterson Arena to raise money for youth diabetes. "It felt really amazing raising money for it, not just for me, but for all the type 1 diabetics around the world," said Brochu.
