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.
We will take part in this year’s Walk to raise funds for the millions of people living with and affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D). The money we raise will help JDRF fund critical research to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people’s lives until no one has to fear developing the disease.
We are actively recruiting anyone who would like to join our team and raise money in support of Sarah Molnar and the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes.
Two small steps can make a BIG difference!
- Make a generous contribution in support of Sarah Molnar. Any amount is welcome. Online donations are safe and secure. Simply visit Sarah’s page on walk.jdrf.org. If you don’t see her name search Sarah Molnar under Participants. However, if you prefer you can send us a check made out to JDRF.
- Join our Team and help us fundraise in support of Sarah Molnar on October 4th. You can register for our team “Sarah’s Squad” at walk.jdrf.org. Your support and fundraising efforts will make a difference!
Please know that more than 80% of JDRF’s expenditures directly support research and research-related education. Past JDRF research efforts have helped to significantly improve the care of people with this disease, and have expanded the critical scientific understanding of T1D. JDRF will not rest until T1D is fully conquered.
We greatly appreciate your consideration and support of this worthy cause. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
Gratefully,
Lorri & Ken Molnar
