Table of Contents CEO Message ...........................................................3 JDRF Supporters ....................................................5 Financials ................................................................24 Leadership ..............................................................25 About JDRF JDRF is the leading global organization focused on type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that strikes both children and adults. Unrelated to diet or lifestyle, T1D causes lifelong dependence on injected or pumped insulin and carries the constant danger of life-threatening complications. It requires intensive, 24/7 management. There are no days off, and there is no cure. Parents founded JDRF in 1970 to help their children with T1D by funding research to find a cure for this poorly understood and often deadly disease. Driven by passionate, grassroots volunteers connected to children, adolescents, and adults with this disease, JDRF has grown to become the largest nongovernmental funder of T1D research. JDRF has awarded more than $1.7 billion to diabetes research since our founding. Our goal is simple: we want to create a world without T1D. JDRF is the only global organization with a strategic plan to bring a continuous stream of life-changing therapies, and ultimately, a cure for T1D. 2 Please visit jdrf.org/2012annualreport to view the entire Annual Report online.
