Embrace Fundraising Freedom: JDRF Your Way & Game 2 Give Initiatives

JDRF YOUR Way

Discover the freedom of fundraising “Your Way” with JDRF! 🌟 Your Way presents an ideal avenue for individuals to support JDRF outside of our larger organized events like One Walk and Ride. With Your Way, you have the creative license to turn your fundraising visions into reality!

Look no further than the inspiring example set by Keith and Deb Perry, who are igniting the dance floor with their Diabetes Dance Party in commemoration of their 45th Anniversary on April 21st! 💃🕺 Following their granddaughter’s diagnosis with T1D, Keith and Deb were compelled to take action. It dawned on them to leverage their anniversary celebration as a means to make a meaningful impact through fundraising! Keith and Deb warmly extend an invitation to you and your loved ones to join them at their dance party, scheduled from 5:00-7:00 pm at the Embassy Suites in Bloomington April 21st. Their party will feature a performance by professional dancers, a dance contest for the kiddos in the crowd, a silent auction and more! 🎉 Interested in attending the dance party or organizing your own event?

Game 2 Give

Did you know JDRF has a video game program?

Since its founding a few years ago, JDRF Game2Give has raised over $3.5M through in-game integrations, livestream fundraisers, esports tournaments and game bundles. In fact, this month, JDRF Game2Give has two shopping opportunities to get a great value on games and give back to JDRF!

Humble Bundle is a popular digital storefront where a percentage of every sale goes to a designated charity. Live Feb 15-21, get this great collection of classic Mega Man games in the Mega Man Franchise Pack and support JDRF! https://www.humblebundle.com/games/mega-man-franchise-pack

Steam is the world’s largest digital storefront for PC games. From Feb 15-22, we are hosting our second ‘Game Over, T1D!’ Steam Sale! The sale features a 50-game lineup with HUGE discounts, and each participating game company will make a donation to JDRF after the sale. https://bit.ly/got1d-sale
