Breakthrough T1D (BreakthroughT1D.org/nebraskaiowa) (formerly JDRF) is looking forward to its annual Gala set for Saturday, April 5 at the CHI Health Center. The event will help raise funds for critical life-changing type 1 diabetes (T1D) research to cure, treat and prevent T1D and its complications.
The gala begins at 6 p.m., featuring cocktails, silent and live auctions, signature Fund A Cure program and live entertainment by John Ondrasik, a songwriter and performer known as the platinum-selling, Grammy-nominated and Five For Fighting artist, with chart topping hits like “Superman (It’s Not Easy)” and “100 years.” Breakthrough T1D is thankful for this year’s event honorees Jennifer and Ken Allred.
