Meet Casey: Joslin Diabetes Center x TJ Maxx

Casey was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) at the young age of four. For 22 years, this relentless disease has demanded constant vigilance—24/7/365, every single day, without a break or day off. T1D involves the whole family, requiring around-the-clock monitoring and unwavering support.

Casey refused to let diabetes define her. With the support of Joslin, she moved forward—not by limiting her life, but by expanding it. Today, Casey is an athlete, an adventurer, and a marathon runner. She has competed on rowing teams, skydived, hiked Spain’s historic El Camino, and completed two marathons. Now, she’s preparing to take on another marathon in April to support Joslin.

Casey’s commitment extends beyond her own journey. By participating in clinical trials, she is helping advance research and move us closer to a future where better treatments and a cure are possible.

From now through February 21st, you can make a gift at any TJ Maxx register, and 100% goes directly to Joslin to support patients like Casey. Find a store near you today!
