Hello everyone!
We have some very exciting news over at the JDCA - we want to help the major diabetes foundations get back on the right track towards a cure, and in those efforts we will be matching every $25 donation made by new Alliance members who sign up and wish to give money to a diabetes foundation of their choice. The only stipulation is - that donation will need to be sent over along with our Donor Action Letter that urges the foundations to use the money specifically to research a Practical Cure for type 1 diabetes.
Cara, our senior editor, wrote a detailed post about it at our blog: http://jdca2025.wordpress.com/2011/11/22/website-relaunch-and-membership-campaign/
Let us know what you think about our idea - we hope that it will motivate people not only to donate more, but to give money while urging more transparency and accountability from the charities.
