I am a Mother of a child with type 1 diabetes. I am the sister of a brother with type 1 diabetes. More than anything I want a cure for this disease. Being a research librarian, I have studied the many diabetes organizations and I find after 20+ years of volunteering with JDRF, that they are the best hope for forwarding prevention, better treatments and a cure for my loved ones and thousands of others. JDRF understands the best approach to get us to a cure. What other organization can say that 85 cents on every dollar raised goes to research? I am proud to be a JDRF Mom, but I look forward to the day I can say I am just a Mom with a child who no longer has diabetes. I believe that day will come sooner because there is an organization called JDRF!
