To help find the cure for diabetes and until that goal is achieved, to provide the care needed to combat the detrimental and life-threatening complications of this terrible disease.

Since our inception in 1993 we have awarded more than $25 million in research and educational grants for the cure to world-renowned clinics, hospitals and institutions. DRWF provides funds to researchers whose work has already provided substantial insight into the causes, early detection, or treatment of diabetes complications. DRWF encourages and facilitates the development of fledgling researchers in the field of diabetes research. We promote public education about the causes, prevention, and treatment of diabetes and its complications, while providing services and products to people with diabetes.
