Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which a person's pancreas stops producing insulin, a hormone that enables people to get energy from food. While its causes are not yet entirely understood, scientists believe that both genetic factors and environmental triggers are involved.
The mission of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) is to cure, treat and prevent type 1 diabetes (T1D). More than 80% of every dollar raised will directly benefit our research efforts to reach this goal. JDRF researchers are currently working on some incredible breakthroughs.
JDRF's Passport to a Cure Gala takes place on Saturday, May 3, 2014 at Bear Creek Mountain Resort in Macungie, PA.
