I’m fundraising for JDRF to defeat T1D!

Hi my name’s Izaak, I just finished my HSC in 2020. I am taking a gap year to ride solo around Australia. In 2017 my sister, Adela, who was 7 years old at the time was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. As a family we’ve have been living this difficult journey for the past 4 years. This has inspired me to look to raise awareness and funds to contribute to research to cure, prevent and better treat type 1 diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes can strike anyone at any time, and 7 Australians are diagnosed every day. Diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy.

DONATE NOW to help the #JDRFBlueArmy and change the lives of Australians living with T1D. Thank you.
