This document discusses type 1 diabetes, which affects about 3 million Americans and is diagnosed most often in childhood. It is a lifelong disease that carries risks of serious complications if not properly managed. The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation was founded in 1970 to fund research for a cure. The second and third paragraphs advertise a 2010 fundraising dinner and walk to support JDRF's efforts to find a cure through research projects like stem cell and islet cell studies. The rest of the document lists donors, sponsors, and raffle prizes for the 2010 fundraising events.
