Hi Everybody! As some of you may know Breakthrough T1D is important to me because <Insert here>. Breakthrough T1D has a mission to accelerate life-changing breakthroughs to cure, prevent, and treat Type 1 Diabetes and its complications. Amazing work is being done and Breakthrough T1D has funded over $2 billion dollars of research over the past 47 years, we aren’t there yet.
That’s why I am tagging you <list those you tag> to help the Breakthrough T1D Hampton Roads Chapter raise 20k in 1 day to commemorate their 20th anniversary and support of local T1D families.
I have already donated ($xx amount) to the 20k in 1 Day page in honor of (personal connection). Now I am asking you to join me by giving $20 or an amount of your choosing.
