Dear Family and Friends,
I am proud to be part of the 2017 ONE Group! My purpose it to support JDRF's efforts to cure, treat and prevent Type 1 Diabetes (T1D).
This cause is important to me. I've lived with type 1 diabetes for more than 30 years. I am healthy and I have the resources to not let the disease get in my way...at least not too much. But, I am lucky. Others don't have the same access to medical supplies and education. So, they suffer debilitating complications and even early death. I find this unacceptable.
Life with diabetes is incredibly difficult, unnerving and, ultimately, life-threatening. But we CAN help. We can all make a difference and make life better for people with T1D. With every dollar raised, we spearhead research efforts and get one step closer to finding a cure.
Please join me in supporting JDRF, the largest charitable supporter of T1D research, find a cure! You can donate today or I would love if you could join me at The ONE Party on November 15th (or both!), at American Spirit Works. Tickets are $75 per person or $125 for VIP. There will be cocktails, delicious food, music and dancing. Plus, the proceeds will go towards JDRF's efforts, so it's a party you can feel really good about celebrating!
If you can't make it to the party, you can donate online here or write a check. Please make checks payable to JDRF and include my name in the memo portion. You can mail checks to:
3525 Piedmont Road NE, Bldg 6, Ste 300
Atlanta, GA 30305
Thank you for your support!
