DALLAS, Feb. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- IntelliCentrics supports JDRF in its unwavering commitment to finding a cure for type 1 diabetes. We are thrilled to partner with the JDRF Greater Dallas to Unmask a Cure. JDRF is the leading global organization funding Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) research and to turn type one into type none.
IntelliCentrics Inc., a community of professionals, patients, their families, and facilities working together to achieve a safe and SEC3URE healthcare experience, is extremely proud to the presenting sponsor for the JDRF 2017 Greater Dallas Dream Gala. JDRF exists for the millions of children, adults, and families affected by T1D every single day. Their determination to overcome this disease strengthens our mission for everyone to experience SEC3URE healthcare.
The JDRF Greater Dallas Chapter will be honoring Tom Gaglardi, The Dallas Stars Owner, and Governor, for his outstanding commitment to JDRF's mission of finding a cure for T1D. Jim Lites, President of the Dallas Stars, is serving in the role of Corporate Chair. According to Trey Parker, the Board of Directors' President, the black tie gala will include a cocktail reception; a multi-course dinner; silent and live auctions; JDRF's signature Fund A Cure program and live entertainment by Limelight!

More than 80% of JDRF expenditures T1D support research and research-related education for a cure, treatment, and prevention. This essential research is necessary toward finding a cure and making the world a safer place. Last year's gala event raised more than $1.4M for the Greater Dallas chapter.

About Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that strikes both children and adults and is unrelated to diet or lifestyle. The disease occurs when the body's immune system attacks and destroys the beta cells in the pancreas that produce insulin, a hormone essential to turning food into energy. Without insulin, glucose from food stays in the blood, where it can cause severe damage to all of the body's organ systems. It requires constant carbohydrate counting, blood-glucose testing, and lifelong dependence on injected insulin. With T1D there are no days off, and there is no cure yet.
