Welcome to my Events for Good - JDRF ODRAM fundraising page!
I will be participating in the ODRAM (One Day Ride Across Michigan) to support a cause that is very close to my heart. This bicycle ride is dedicated to raising funds for JDRF, an organization leading the fight against type 1 diabetes (T1D) and honoring Brother Bill.
JDRF unifies global efforts to cure, treat, and prevent T1D, striving to deliver a world without this disease and its complications. While they began as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, they have expanded their mission to encompass all ages affected by T1D, hence retaining their well-known initials, JDRF. They are highly rated as a charity organization.
I am riding to honor the memory of Brother Bill, who tragically lost his battle with diabetes. Brother Bill was strong, courageous, and FULL of life!!! My Great Aunt, Grandmother, and Aunt—all fell victim to this relentless disease. It would be outstanding to live in a world free from the grip of diabetes!
Your donation, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in the lives of those living with T1D and their families.
Let's put an end to diabetes. Together, we can make a difference.
Thank you for your generosity and support.

Welcome to my JDRF ODRAM fundraising page!
Did you know T1D:
- Strikes both children and adults suddenly and is unrelated to diet and lifestyle.
- Occurs when the body’s immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Insulin is essential to turning food into energy.
- Requires constant carbohydrate counting, blood-glucose testing, and lifelong dependence on injected insulin.
JDRF is working every day to change this. And every dollar I raise helps them continue to bring life-changing therapies from the lab to the community until a cure is found.
I have been hard at work training and fundraising, and your gift today will propel me toward the finish line. Please donate and help JDRF achieve its goal of a world without T1D.
Please check back to view my fundraising progress as my ODRAM weekend approaches. Thank you for your support.
