    Default Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundations Fundraising


    Hey guys,

    I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when I was only 5 years old. As a part of my managaing this disease, I run... sometimes A LOT of running. I have entered the Little Rock Half Marathon on March 2, 2014. While doing this, I am raising money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

    My goal is to get 40 people to donate only $1 per mile ($13.10), or 20 people to donate $2 per mile ($26.20). Can you help support my fundraising efforts by making a donation?

    JDRF's mission is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. JDRF is the world's largest charitable funder and advocate of type 1 diabetes research and is responsible for more than $1billion in direct funding since it was founded. JDRF funds research with the greatest impact throughout the world, leading to results as soon as possible.

    Team JDRF...our goal is the cure.

    Click on the link and then click on the "Support Me" button and join me in the fight to find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes.

    BTW, I checked with Slab before posting this and he said this was OK since it was "For a good cause".

    Hi guys,
    I am still looking for a few folks to help me fight this terrible disease that kids (and young adults) can do nothing to prevent. JDRF is a great group, and provide SO much research and new innovations to help fight the good fight.

    JDRF is the only global organization with a strategic plan to progressively remove the impact of Type 1 Diabetes from people’s lives until it is no longer a threat to anyone.

    Your tax-deductible gift will help JDRF create a world without T1D.

    My wife was diagnosed at age 10. She's had it for 32 years now, and I've seen the last 22. Always glad to help on this one anyway I can. Thanks Matt, and good luck!!
