The Countdown has begun...


Walk Day is 3 Weeks Away!

Are you and your teammates registered yet?  If not, register today, and encourage your family and friends to do the same, at www.jdrfillinois.org

There is still plenty of time to fundraise!  Utilize Walk Central to send out donation e-mails.  Raise $100 quick by asking 10 people for $10!

Are you looking to freshen up your fundraising letter?  A great idea was brought to our attention to include a calendar in your letter.  In the calendar you can list any time that your loved one with type 1 was hospitalized or at the doctor for diabetes related issues.  This is just another way to motivate people to help raise money for a cure!

Matching Gift Reminder! Don't forget to ask your donors if their company has a matching gift program.  Many corporations and foundations will match, double, or even triple an employee's personal donation!
