THANK YOU SPONSORS!

Fund A Cure is an opportunity to make an impact on the lives of people living with T1D and their loved ones through a 100% tax-deductible donation, which will accelerate life-changing research.


JDRF is the leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. Our mission is to accelerate life-changing breakthroughs to cure, prevent and treat T1D and its complications. To accomplish this, JDRF has invested $2 billion in research funding since our inception. We are an organization built on a grassroots model of people connecting in their local communities, collaborating regionally for efficiency and broader fundraising impact, and uniting on a national stage to pool resources, passion, and energy. We collaborate with academic institutions, policymakers, and corporate and industry partners to develop and deliver a pipeline of innovative therapies to people living with T1D. Our staff and volunteers in more than 100 locations throughout the United States and our six international affiliates are dedicated to advocacy, community engagement and our vision of a world without T1D. For more information, please visit jdrf.org or follow us on Twitter: @JDRF.


 

As many of you know, I was diagnosed when I was 8 years old when I was diagnosed with T1D. Within weeks, a family from JDRF came and visited me and my family to help us transition into a life with T1D. Shortly after, my family and I joined the JDRF family and have been with them through these past fourteen years.

  I started volunteering at the Hope Ball as a Youth Ambassador and now serve on the committee as Communications Director. The Hope Ball has always been a night of fun that just gets better. This year, we are treating all of our guests to One Night in Rio and I hope that you will join us.

  The Hope Ball has been a big part of my life and I'm proud to be part of JDRF, an organization committed to research and advocacy on behalf of everyone who is affected by T1D. Join me in turning Type One, into Type None.

 Thank you,

Randy England
