About JDRF
JDRF is the leading charitable funder and advocate of Type 1 (juvenile) Diabetes research worldwide. The mission of JDRF is to find a cure for Diabetes and its complications through the support of research. Type 1 Diabetes is a disease that strikes children suddenly and requires multiple injections of insulin daily or a continuous infusion of insulin through a pump. Insulin is not a cure for diabetes, nor does it prevent its eventual and devastating complications that may include kidney failure, blindness, heart disease, stroke, and amputation.
Since its founding in 1970 by parents of children with Type 1 Diabetes, JDRF has awarded more than $1 billion to Diabetes research, including more than $123 million in FY2006. In FY2006, the Foundation funded 500 centers, grants and fellowships in 20 countries.
