Delivering the Message of Hope. Dedicated to a Life Free from type 1 diabetes. The JDRF Austin chapter was established in 1998 after it was apparent that the type 1 families in our community had deep roots of passion and a strong commitment to the mission of the organization. Since that time, the spirit of volunteerism has been the driving force behind each and every milestone of success. This year, we are proud to honor the volunteer leadership of past chapter presidents with the Liz and Kirk Watson Founders Award. Without their vision, dedication and contributions of time, talent and treasure we may not have been able to impact the future of research to the extent we have. They have inspired, motivated and recognized so many others; it is with pride and pleasure that we recognize each of our past JDRF Austin Board Presidents.

About
TOUCHING LIVES; CONNECTING COMMUNITIES
Committed to a cure • We are committed, as we have always been, to our mission, which is to find a cure for type 1 diabetes and its complications through the support of research. • We are also focused on prevention to keep future generations free from getting type 1 diabetes.
Better treatments today • We are transforming the way people with type 1 diabetes treat the disease today in order to help them live healthier lives now and in the future.
All ages, all stages
6
• JDRF supports research to develop better treatments and a cure for type 1 diabetes at all life stages. This includes the following: • Stopping or slowing the progression of the disease in newly diagnosed children, teens and adults. Fifty percent of all newly diagnosed type 1’s are over the age of 18. • Reversing it in those who have lived with the disease for years • Avoiding or reversing its complications • Preventing the disease in people at risk and in future generations • Improving treatment of type 1 diabetes and providing better tools to achieve tight glucose control for people at all stages of the disease.
• As we’ve always done, we are embracing research targeted to individuals at all stages of type 1 diabetes, including adults who have lived for many years with the disease, as well as children with type 1 diabetes and their families.
Partnering with purpose • We strategically partner with industry, governments, foundations, academia, and clinicians to ensure that JDRF and its partners are aligned and working toward a common goal of curing, treating and preventing type 1 diabetes. • Partnering brings innovative ideas to life. Crucial to achieving our goals, industry has the resources to take basic research and bring it to market, where it can benefit people with type 1 diabetes.
You are not alone • As the parent of a child with type 1 diabetes, “my chief priority is finding a cure,” says JDRF’s CEO Jeffrey Brewer. Until we can achieve that goal, “I want to make sure my son and everyone else living with type 1 diabetes has treatments that will keep them healthy along the way. And ultimately I want to make sure that we find ways to prevent the onset of the disease entirely so that future generations at risk never have to think about whether or not they will develop the disease.”
MESSAGE
FROM
THE
COMMITTEE
CHAIR,
DANA
GERMER
Thank you so much for being part of this special night. I was asked to be the co-chair of this event back in May of last year. Having never chaired an event before, I had little idea of what to expect. The support of each of you as well as our donors has been an amazing thing to behold. Before I signed on for this endeavor, I knew little concerning this disease; my connection was through the daughter of a friend (Emma Garrett) who had been diagnosed before she was only one. It’s hard to imagine a young child dealing with something so life altering, through absolutely no fault of her own. That is the thing about empathy . . . you can’t really know until you’re there. Through this process, I’ve seen the quiet courage of Central Texas families, where every day is a new challenge. I can think of no higher honor than helping assist those in need by helping to raise funds that will hopefully one day eradicate type 1 diabetes, once and for all. I want to thank my husband Stephen who put in double duty with our twins allowing me to help bring all of this together.

MESSAGE
FROM
THE
COMMITTEE
CHAIR,
cristi
Welcome and thank you for coming out tonight to help JDRF in its efforts to find a cure for type 1 diabetes. It’s a beautiful way to celebrate all of the progress JDRF has made for people living with type 1. My sister-in-law was diagnosed with type 1 at age 10 and has been very involved with JDRF in Dallas. She is a mother of 3 and manages a successful real estate firm, while living with type 1. When my friends and fellow lawyers Mark and Emma Garrett discovered that their daughter, Sarah had type 1 just before her 1st birthday, we immediately put them in contact with Karla and JDRF for support. The night before I was asked to co-chair this event, I found out that one of my sorority sisters from Texas Tech lost her life to type 1. It seemed like a nudge from Heaven that I should participate in raising awareness and trying to help find a cure for type 1. During the course of working on the Hope Ball, I have learned a great deal about type 1 and I am amazed at all that JDRF does. I’d like to say a special thank you to my husband and my paralegals who have put in extra time and endured my absence from the home and office while I have worked on this event. 8

We wish to thank all of our amazing committee members, with a special thanks to Rachel Gibaut and Lettie Hale. Your tireless efforts helped make the auction a success. We are also indebted to our dear friends and family who helped support our efforts to make this night happen. Last, but certainly not least, three cheers to the entire JDRF staff, especially Kari and Tristina, whose patience and knowledge carried all of us through to the end.
May 12, 2012 Dear Friends, I am delighted to acknowledge the Austin Chapter on the special occasion of your 2012 Hope Ball. This event reflects the outstanding efforts and contributions of your volunteers and staff to support diabetes research and to increase awareness of the seriousness of this disease. As someone who has lived with type 1 diabetes (T1D) for nearly 40 years, I am grateful to JDRF Austin’s former Board Presidents, Gail Papermaster, Jim Brown, James Erben, Christos Anagnos, Zoltan Papp, Toni Clark and Mark Garrett, for your outstanding commitment to JDRF and our mission. I extend my sincere thanks to Gala Chairs, Cristi Trusler and Dana Germer, and to all of tonight’s many guests. Through your efforts and generous support we are accelerating the pace of scientific discovery for treatments to help people lead better lives while we search for a cure for our loved ones and the millions of people who live with T1D. By participating in this Gala, you are helping to make history, because together, we will fulfill JDRF’s mission. Warm regards,
Mary Tyler Moore International Chairman 9

Fund A Cure
Giving Hope — Advancing Cure Therapies At tonight’s Hope Ball, there will be a moment after Live Auction when the room will be stilled and the story of hope will unfold; we call this special time “Fund A Cure.” During Fund A Cure, you will have the opportunity to donate directly to research and fund the science that will transform the lives of our friends and families living with type 1 diabetes. This year all proceeds from Fund A Cure will support the important work being done in the area of Cure Therapies. Such important research in this arena of JDRF research is dedicated to replacing or regenerating beta cells, and halting the autoimmune process. Critical progress is currently being made in the following areas: Beta Cell Regeneration, Health and Survival, Encapsulation/ Immunoisolation of Alternative Beta Cell Sources, Antigen-specific Immunotherapies and Vaccines and Biomarkers: Staging, Prognostic, and Predictive. Last year JDRF directed $57.3 million to researchers working in this important arena. Your support of the Cure Therapies Program through Fund A Cure is 100% tax-deductible and will enable us to pursue our mission to find a cure for type 1 and its complications through the support of research.
