INSPIRED TO FIND A CURE FOR DIABETES

The Northwestern Pennsylvania Chapter of Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) was founded in 1995. With an active board we offer local programs to support newly diagnosed individuals and their families. Direct medical and indirect costs related to diabetes exceed $6.6 billion annually in the state of Pennsylvania alone. Our chapter has contributed over $2 million since 1995 to diabetes research, but we need to do more. Please join us in finding a cure. You can help by supporting one of our signature programs.

With your help, we are moving research from the laboratory bench to the patient's bedside, translating scientific advances into longer, healthier lives for those with diabetes. With your help, we are moving closer to our goal ... a cure for diabetes and its complications.
