FORE The Kids - JDRF Annual Golf Classic

JDRF’s Annual Golf Classic, FORE THE KIDS will be held this year at The Country Club of Fairfield on Thursday, October 20, 2011. Join our efforts and "swing" for the cure with colleagues, clients, friends and NEW this year, an opportunity to golf with a former NFL Player! Contact Lu Rosa at 203-854-0658 or email lrosa@jdrf.org to reserve your spot.

Aside from playing one of the most exclusive courses in the country and an opportunity to network with colleagues, clients, and former NFL players, you will be supporting what the Wall Street Journal calls “one of the best run charities.”

• JDRF has a clear mission – Its goal is to find a cure for diabetes through the support of research. JDRF is also committed to developing new and better treatments that improve the lives of people with type 1 diabetes in the near term and keep them healthy while we advance toward a cure.

• JDRF helps children – Children with diabetes face a lifetime of insulin injections, blood tests and devastating complications.  They will not outgrow it.  They need insulin just to stay alive.  Their only hope is a cure through the support of research.

Your support means helping us fund the development of innovative therapies. It means building an environment where scientists can accelerate transformation of basic research into clinical medicine. It means funding the research that will culminate in a cure for diabetes.Visit http://www.jdrf.org/fairfieldcounty for more information about the JDRF - Fairfield County Chapter.
