Join me in the fight to create a world without type 1 diabetes!

My best friend’s son, Oliver, was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in Feb 2024 at 2 years old. This rocked their world and forever changed their lives! I am running in honor of Ollie and for every other child diagnosed with this terrible disease! Let's Find A Cure!

Description

Welcome to my personal Team Breakthrough T1D (formerly JDRF) fundraising page!

I have joined Team Breakthrough T1D to raise funds for the millions of people living with and affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D). The money I raise will help Breakthrough T1D  fund critical research to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people's lives until no one has to fear developing the disease.

Type 1 diabetes is a life-threatening autoimmune disease in which a person's pancreas stops producing insulin—a hormone essential to the ability to get energy from food. It strikes both children and adults suddenly and changes life as they know it forever. It cannot be prevented and there is no cure.

Breakthrough T1D is the largest nongovernmental funder of T1D research and the only global organization with a strategic research plan to fight T1D. This science is complex and costly, and every dollar Breakthrough T1D is able to direct toward research comes from donors like you.

Please support me and donate to my fundraising campaign. Your gift will make a difference for millions of people affected by this devastating, life-threatening disease. Won't you please give to Breakthrough T1D as generously as possible today?

Thank you for your support!
