Where has 2017 gone… Giving Tuesday is behind us, but giving isn’t just for Tuesday’s it’s for the entire season and gifts come in different sizes and shapes and here are some holiday tips.

What greater gift can we give than the “Gift of Progress to a Cure”! Below are 3 ways to incorporate this type of gift into the holiday festivities:

1. As a company have your holiday party attendees “Give Hope” by donating to JDRF instead of that silly office gift!

1. At your annual holiday party for family & friends let them know no gifts please, but rather “Promise to Make a Difference” by donating to JDRF.

3. Before we welcome 2018 please remember the opportunity to end the year with a “Giving Heart” by your year-end donations… You are welcome to donate by check, they must be postmarked on or before December 31, 2017. If you wish to give a credit card gift you can do so anytime (24 hours/day) through our website, https://www.jdrf.org/ by clicking the “Donate Today” button.  If you plan to make an online payment toward your Major Gift Pledge, please provide us with your name and payment amount. This will assist us with correctly crediting your pledge.

We hope you take the time to enjoy your family and friends and reflect on all your accomplishments in 2017. Please note, all JDRF offices will be closed at 2:00pm on Friday, December 22, 2017 and will reopen on Monday, January 2, 2018.

Your partnerships and friendships on our T1D journey to Turn Type One into Type None are our greatest gifts and blessings… wishing you a holiday season filled with endless joy!
