Since 1996, the JDRF Dream Gala has raised an estimated $22 million for Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) research. Those funds have directly impacted the lives of millions of people living with T1D; improving the quality of life and easing the burden of this disease until a cure is found.
Through the contributions of generous donors over the years, JDRF has become the largest charitable funder of T1D research in the world. Today, the future is hopeful for the estimated 1.5 million people living in the United States with T1D. That bright future simply would not be possible without the generous supporters of JDRF.
Continuing on the immense success of 2017 Dream Gala, the 2018 Dream Gala seeks to uncork a cure while honoring the JDRF Men on a Mission. This year’s gala will be back at Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel for a night of exciting auctions, expertly selected wines and cocktails, exquisite food and extraordinary entertainment. For the third year in a row, the VIP after-party will be back with cocktails, late-night snacks, dancing and more! Offered exclusively to Dream Gala sponsors, the after-party will be the perfect way to celebrate the success of another JDRF Dream Gala.
