Connie and Michael Magnuson are dedicated to creating a future free of type 1 diabetes (T1D). After their daughter, Karen, was diagnosed with T1D as an adult the Magnusons knew they could make a difference by supporting JDRF.

“While Karen lives with the challenges T1D imposes, JDRF-supported research has made it easier to manage their T1D and stay healthy. Yet we still have much more to do,” says Connie. “I believe including gifts to JDRF in our estate plans is an effective way to help eliminate T1D. I hope that, together, we can find a cure.”
