WASHINGTON, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- Teen singer, songwriter and actor Nick Jonas will speak about living with diabetes at a National Press Club luncheon in Washington, organizers say.
The event will be held Aug. 24.
"Since being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 13, the pop superstar, who tests his blood sugar more than 10 times a day, has made a personal commitment to raise awareness about juvenile diabetes," the press club noted in a release about the 16-year-old's upcoming personal appearance.
"In June, he testified before Congress to call for support of diabetes research funding. He wrote the song 'A Little Bit Longer' to inspire those with diabetes to live their lives to the fullest," the organization added. "Together with his brothers Kevin and Joe, Nick founded the Jonas Brothers' Change for the Children Foundation to support programs that motivate children to face adversity and one of their causes is to raise money and awareness for various diabetes programs."
