Aurora World and JDRF 2017 Children's Congress Event in Washington D.C.

0 comments

Several weeks ago, we had the privilege of joining the JDRF 2017 Children’s Congress, which is JDRF’s tenth biennial event held for children aged 4-17 living with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The event took place in Washington, D.C. on July 24 – 26, where more than 160 children from across the country had the opportunity to share their story of living with T1D to members of Congress to help them understand why research for better treatments and a cure for T1D is so important.

We were happy to be able to donate these bears for the event, where each child got one of these bears to keep them company!
