CFD LA Comin’ Atcha’ –Dgnetics against Diabetes

July 14th, 2008 by Jerri Chou · No Comments

If you haven’t downloaded the tracks from our friends Dgenetics music, you can check ‘em out live at this Wednesday’s Cause for Drinks in LA at Cha Cha Lounge from 5-10.

$2 from every drink will go to support THE JUVENILE DIABETES RESEARCH FOUNDATION and on top of that, family. Cause for Drinks will be supporting two of the hundreds of riders in this JDRF’s August Ride to Cure Diabetes, Nick and his mother Debbie, who will be at the event with their brother and son, who suffers from Type 1 diabetes.

“Many people think type 1 diabetes can be controlled by insulin. While insulin does keep people with type 1 diabetes alive, it is NOT a cure. Aside from the daily challenges of living with type 1 diabetes, there are many severe, often fatal, complications caused by the disease. That’s the bad news… and yes, it’s pretty bad. The good news, though, is that a cure for type 1 diabetes is within reach. In fact, JDRF funding and leadership is associated with most major scientific breakthroughs in type 1 diabetes research to date. And JDRF funds a major portion of all type 1 diabetes research worldwide, more than any other charity.”

Come out and listen to some great tunes, meet the new CFD family in La and support a great Cause.

If you can’t make it, visit Debbie’s Ride Web Page and follow this link to make a donation.
