Brian Sullivan of Colorado and the JDRF Organization

JDRF stands for Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund. Brian Sullivan of Colorado is an avid supporter of this organization. JDRF used the money that is raised to research juvenile diabetes, which is often referred to Type 1 diabetes. In this form of diabetes, the body’s immune system begins to destroy the cells that release insulin. If this condition is left untreated, the body will eliminate insulin creation in the body completely. This type of diabetes accounts for five to ten percent of people who have diabetes. This condition is one that touches the heart of Brian Sullivan of Colorado and that of his family, which is why he donates much of his resources to the JDRF Organization.

Brian Sullivan of Colorado has a heart for giving. He believes in a better future for everyone, especially his grandchildren. There are a plethora of associations and foundations that he donates to including: the Wounded Warrior Project, the American Heart Association, and the Susan G. Komen organization. Though he contributes to all of these charities annually, there is only one that Brian Sullivan of Colorado gives the most annually to and that is JDRF. On the subject, Sullivan said, “I have contributed [greatly] to [Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund]. In 2007, I was fortunate enough to donate a trip on a private jet, valued at over twenty thousand dollars. This is a cause that is near and dear to my family’s heart. [I donate] thousands each year, but [most of the money goes] to JDRF.
