It brings great pleasure to announce NikeTalk's newest donation of $2,768.60 to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) www.jdrf.org.
Although there are many dedicated charities from which to choose every month, we decided to donate to JDRF. It is one of the leading charitable funders and advocates of type 1 (juvenile) diabetes research worldwide.
Diabetes is the name given to disorders in which the body has trouble regulating its blood sugar levels. Type 1 diabetes, also called juvenile diabetes, is a disorder of the body's immune system.
I was especially excited to see Niketalk make this donation. Last year, I had the opportunity to intern for JDRF. I was able to see firsthand the amount of dedication and support they offer those with type 1 diabetes. Many of us have friends and family members whose daily struggles include taking multiple insulin injections and checking their blood sugar regularly. JDRF's mission is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. Thank you for helping to make this donation possible and for helping JDRF take one more step towards finding a cure.
