The 33rd Annual Boston Gala was held on May 9, 2015 at the Boston Marriott Copley Place. Thank you to our attendees, donors, sponsors, auction item donors and volunteers for their support and ongoing commitment to JDRF. We also offer thanks and congratulations to Shari and Robert Cashman, Honorees, and Marshalls, the 2015 Nancy Jones Diabetes Champion Award recipient. We are grateful to our One Night Gala Committee for their time, energy, and overall support and to our Gala Chair Mindy Maines for her leadership.

The success of this event and your support of JDRF’s plan to turn Type One into Type None has led to exciting and meaningful progress. Thank you for helping us to raise an astounding $2 million that evening!
