Investment Opportunites

A major gift in support of JDRF funded research is a unique investment opportunity that allows your gift to have the greatest capacity to truly affect the rate at which type 1 diabetes research will progress. A gift at this level can be unrestricted allowing JDRF to fund the most promising new treatments and paths to a cure; or can be directed to a specific cure therapeutic, grant program or research institute of your choice.

An investment in research makes you a partner in creating a world without type 1 diabetes. As you review the information below, and the information on the JDRF funded research, keep in mind that many of these achievements have been made possible through the support of our most generous donors.

Why Entrust Funds to JDRF

JDRF is uniquely positioned to deliver a cure

JDRF is the world’s leading type 1 diabetes organization. We are fully devoted to finding a cure for type 1 diabetes and its complications—and in the meantime, to developing new treatments that make life better for the millions of children and adults worldwide with the disease.

JDRF is the only organization with the vision, capabilities, and resources to create and deliver a cure and life-improving treatments to people with type 1 diabetes. We alone put the interests of people with type 1 at the center of everything we do. We partner widely—with the academic community, the biopharma industry, governments, regulatory agencies, and medical payors—to drive the development of cures and treatments, get them to market, and ensure they are reimbursed. We tightly focus our funding on the most promising science, with the goal of ensuring a robust pipeline of potential new treatments and cures.

Over our 40-year history, JDRF has funded more type 1 research than any other charitable organization—$1.4 billion and counting. That investment has brought tremendous progress in treating and understanding the disease. But we won’t rest until we are known as the organization that cured type 1 diabetes.
