Galas

GalasEvery year, JDRF invites our families, volunteers, donors, partners, and sponsors to attend local Galas in communities across Canada. On this evening, thousands of JDRF supporters come together for an elegant event, raising funds and celebrating the achievements that have been made in diabetes research.

All JDRF Galas select a unique theme for their evening, chosen by each JDRF Chapter and their Gala committees. Regardless of the Gala’s theme, each year guests enjoy a delectable formal dinner, entertainment, dancing, silent and live auctions, and JDRF’s exciting Fund A Cure auction.

More than 3,500 people attended JDRF Galas in 2012, raising more than $2.9 million. Thank you for your support. We look forward to seeing you at our Galas!
