On a quest to fight diabetes

Donate and your gift is matched!

Andrea, for so many researchers, fighting diabetes is personal. They've seen loved ones living with diabetes and all its burdens or they have diabetes themselves. That is why they are driven to find new, better, and safer ways to manage diabetes, reduce complications, and ultimately, to find a cure. Right now, you can double your power to help diabetes researchers make potentially life-changing discoveries thanks to a generous gift matching offer from the Kahlert Foundation – a leader in improving the quality of life and well-being in our communities. They will match your donations up to the campaign total of $50,000! Dr. Stephen Parker has watched his family members struggle with diabetes and knows that he himself has a higher genetic risk of developing the disease. This personal connection drives him to find new ways to reduce the risk of diabetes that affects 1 in 11 Americans. It's a complicated puzzle – there are more than 100 genetic variants associated with type 2 diabetes risk. Dr. Parker is working to develop the most comprehensive picture of how type 2 diabetes develops in different individuals. The goal is to help doctors decide the most effective medication for each of their patients based on their unique DNA profile. He also hopes that doctors will eventually be able to prevent people from ever developing diabetes in the first place. Supporting research is the most effective way to unlock the mysteries of diabetes, develop new, better, and safer treatments, and ultimately find a cure. The Kahlert Foundation will match your donation, dollar-for-dollar, up to a campaign total of $50,000. Please don't wait. Research proposals are beginning to pour in from scientists and physicians all over the country who are eager to tackle promising new projects. When it comes to research, we need to explore as many good ideas as possible. Every research project left on the table due to lack of funds could be an opportunity missed for an important breakthrough. Your donation will also raise awareness and advocate on behalf of this global community.     The Kahlert Foundation has generously committed to providing $50,000 to this campaign.
