I'm writing to ask for your support for a very special cause. I’m excited to have joined the JDRF Hope Ball Committee this year.
More than 40 years ago a small group of parents in the Philadelphia area were brought together by a shared common goal — to find a cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D). Their conviction and determination built the cornerstone for JDRF, which has grown to be the leading global organization funding T1D research. Since its founding, JDRF has awarded $1.8 billion research.
One of the most moving and meaningful parts of the evening is Fund A Cure. Fund A Cure is a unique opportunity to make a gift of any amount in support of JDRF’s mission. 100% of Fund A Cure donations support research and research-related education, allowing your dollars to make the highest impact on our path to a cure.
This year the members of the Hope Ball Committee have committed to making a Fund A Cure gift together. I’m asking you to help support my fundraising efforts with a donation. Your tax-deductible gift will help make a difference in the lives of people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). 100% of Fund A Cure donations support research and research-related education, allowing your dollars to make the highest impact on our path to a cure, and your donation is tax deductible.
It is fast and easy to donate. Simply click the “Donate Now” or if you prefer, you can mail your donation to JDRF at the address listed below. Please make the check out to JDRF and include my name in the “Memo” section.

Any amount, great or small, helps JDRF get closer to its goal of improving the lives of every person affected by T1D by accelerating progress on the most promising opportunities for curing, better treating, and preventing T1D. I greatly appreciate your support of this important cause.
With sincere gratitude,
Janet
