Greetings!

We are asking for your support in a very special cause. We once again are walking at the JDRF Annual Walk to continue in our fight to find a cure to Diabetes.

We need your help!

This year, we’ll be taking part once again in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's Walk to Cure Diabetes along with a half-million other walkers across the country. Our goal: To raise $90 million to help fund research for a cure for diabetes and its complications.

Diabetes, is a devastating, often deadly disease that affects millions of people--a large and growing percentage of them children.

Aside from the daily challenges of living with type 1 diabetes, there are many severe, often fatal, complications caused by the disease.

That's the bad news... and yes, it's pretty bad.

The good news, though, is that JDRF is making steady progress toward a cure. In fact, JDRF funding and leadership is associated with most major scientific breakthroughs in diabetes research to date. And JDRF funds more research than any other charity worldwide.

We’re asking for your support because now more than ever, EACH of us can be a part of bringing about a cure. Each of us can make a real difference

Won't you please give to JDRF as generously as you're able? Even a Dollar donation will help in our fight to find a cure.

Together, we can make the cure a reality.
