Anne & Robert Pillion

Gala Co-Chairs

Anne and Robert (Bob) Pillion are long-time Glenview residents with their three children and their son, Jack, who lives with T1D. When Jack was diagnosed with this life-altering disease, the family immediately became involved with JDRF. Bob, Global Client Service Partner at Ernst & Young, joined the JDRF Illinois board and the rest is history.

Anne has been a volunteer for JDRF Illinois in many ways, starting with her family’s participation at the annual JDRF One Walk and going on to volunteer at various events including the JDRF Ride to Cure Diabetes. Pillion also served as the Auction Co-Chair for the annual JDRF One Dream Gala helping to cultivate a robust auction of over 400 packages that raised over $500,000. Pillion didn’t stop there, volunteering as a JDRF Illinois Board Member.

Anne has also hosted home pop-up shops for local residents that benefits two-fold: supporting local Glenview businesses with a portion of sales donated to JDRF. This community outreach touches many lives and makes a big impact.

“I volunteer at JDRF because I want my son to know that his world is a better place because of all that JDRF is doing to help people living with T1D. I will continue to help JDRF in whatever way I can as we all work towards a world without T1D,” expressed Anne Pillion.

Glen Tullman

Gala Fundraising Chair

Glen Tullman is the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Transcarent, the first comprehensive, consumer-directed health and care platform for employees of self-insured employers and their families. Born in Silicon Valley, Transcarent’s platform empowers consumers with the kind of information, guidance and access that leads to better care, better outcomes, and more cost-effective decisions for everyone.

Tullman is the former Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder of Livongo Health, the first at-scale consumer digital health company to truly empower people with chronic conditions to live better and healthier lives using data science.

In his final year, he led Livongo through the largest consumer digital health Initial Public Offering in history, a secondary offering, a convertible debt offering that raised over $550 million, and the industry’s largest merger to date between Livongo and Teladoc Health, valuing Livongo at $18.5 billion and beginning a new era of consumer centric virtual care.

A visionary leader and entrepreneur, Tullman previously ran two other public companies that changed the way health care is delivered. During his time as Chief Executive Officer of Allscripts, the Company was the leading provider of electronic prescribing, practice management, and electronic health records. Glen led Allscripts IPO and Secondary offerings. Prior to Allscripts, he was Chief Executive Officer of Enterprise Systems, the leading resource management systems for hospitals, which he also took public and then sold to McKesson/HBOC. Before entering healthcare, Tullman served as President and COO of CCC Information Systems, a provider of computerized systems for the property and casualty insurance sector.

Tullman is also one of two Founding Partners at 7wireVentures, one of the highest returning venture capital funds in Illinois. He is the author of On Our Terms: Empowering the New Health Consumer, in which he proposes new solutions to address the chronic-condition epidemic facing our country.

Glen is dedicated to finding a cure for diabetes and other chronic conditions—and to keeping people healthy until cures are found. A strong proponent of philanthropy, he was honored in 2019 with a Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Award for his career focused on improving the safety, empathy, and efficiency of our healthcare system. He also serves as a Chancellor to the International Board of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and as a Board Member and the incoming Chairperson of the American Diabetes Association. Tullman has three amazing children that inspire him every day.
