Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation is the worldwide leader for research to cure type 1 diabetes. It sets the global agenda for diabetes
research and is the largest charitable funder and advocate of diabetes science worldwide.

The mission of JDRF is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that strikes children and adults suddenly and can be fatal. Until a cure is found, people with type 1 diabetes have to test their blood sugar and give themselves insulin injections multiple times or use a pump- each day, every day of their lives. And even with that intensive care, insulin is not a cure for diabetes, nor does it prevent its eventual and devastating complications, which may include kidney failure, blindness, heart disease, stroke, and amputation.

Springfield Twp Supervisors

Springfield Township is a Second Class Township located in the Southeast corner of Mercer County, Pennsylvania, roughly 60 miles north of Pittsburgh. It covers approximately 28.7 square miles and is home to a population of 1,981 people, according to the latest US Census.

The strategic location on I-79 and within close proximity to I-80 has helped to make Springfield Township an important regional shopping area.  Many local businesses have been attracted to the area due to the ease of access to the Interstate Highway System.

State Games Lands #284  is a major attraction for outdoor recreation.  Neshannock Creek in the western portion of the Township is a favorite among fisherman.  Leesburg Falls on Schollard’s Run was a historic and natural treasure of the Township.


United Way

United Way improves lives by mobilizing the caring power of communities around the world to advance the common good.

We all have a stake in what befalls our fellow man. We all benefit when a child succeeds in school, when someone finds a job that will help them provide for their family, or when more people are able to access quality, affordable health care.

The solutions we create for communities around the world go beyond short-term charity for a few.  When United Way’s support for Community Schools helps increase the graduation rate in the Vallejo City Unified School District by 11 percent in just three years, it’s not just the students or even just the families of those students who benefit. Those proud graduates now have a much better chance of landing a job that pays a livable wage, of staying out of trouble with the law, and of living longer, healthier lives — and that translates into a safer, healthier and more prosperous community for everyone.

We rise or fall together. With your support, we are reaching for great new heights.

Progeria Research

The MISSION of The Progeria Research Foundation:
To discover treatments and the cure for Progeria and its aging-related disorders, including heart disease.

Progeria is a rare, fatal, “rapid aging” disease. Without the discovery of new treatments, all children with Progeria will die of heart disease at an
average age of 14 years. The Progeria Research Foundation (PRF) was founded in 1999 in response to the complete lack of progress being made to
help children with Progeria. Our original mission: to discover the cause, treatments and cure for Progeria.* Today, PRF continues to be the only
organization in the world solely dedicated to this mission. We have filled a void, taking these children out of the background where they had been for
over 100 years and putting them and Progeria at the forefront of scientific efforts.
