The JDRF Nevada Chapter
Proprietors, Craig & Nancy Stoller were honored and quickly accepted when asked to support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) Nevada Chapter at their annual Hope Gala since 2009 in Las Vegas, NV. Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) was founded in 1970 by the parents of children with type 1 diabetes - a disease that strikes children, adolescents and adults suddenly, makes them insulin dependent for life, and carries the constant threat of devastating complications. Since inception, JDRF has provided more than $1.3 billion to diabetes research worldwide. More than 85 percent of JDRF’s expenditures directly support research and research-related education. JDRF’s mission is constant: to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. For more information, please visit www.jdrflv.org
