In the 24 years since JDRF Kansas City Chapterās Dream Gala began, more than $20 million has been donated for research aimed to cure, treat and prevent type 1 diabetes (T1D). Itās because of generous donors like you that today there are better treatments to help those with this disease live healthier and longer. But our work is not done ā we still need a cure.
At the virtual Dream Gala May 29, 2020, there will be a moment after the Live Auction when the room is stilled, the story of hope unfolds and Fund A Cure begins. Whether or not you are able to join us on May 29, you can participate in Fund A Cure. A donation to Fund A Cure is a direct donation to fund diabetes research. One hundred percent of your donation is tax-deductible.
