We are excited to be working with Bid Pal again this year. If you attended the Gala last year you experienced electronic bidding through the devices provided by Bid Pal. All bidding will be done electronically this year as well, but through the convenience of your own smart phone or at a Bid Pal Kiosk. Please remember to bring your smart phone fully charged and ready to go.

All guests who are attending and have provided us with an email or smartphone number will receive an email with the link to browse our auction items before arriving at the event.

Do you have friends who can’t be with you at the event? You will be able to share this link with your friends and they can participate in our auction by way of remote bidding.

Learn how to use Bid Pal before the event.

About Us

We're the stop at nothing type.

JDRF exists for the millions of children, adults, and families affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D) every single day. Their determination to overcome this disease strengthens ours to end it by funding life-changing T1D research.

T1D is an autoimmune disease in which a person's pancreas loses the ability to produce insulin — a hormone essential to turning food into energy. It strikes both children and adults suddenly and is unrelated to diet and lifestyle. It requires constant carbohydrate counting, blood-glucose testing, and lifelong dependence on injected insulin.

Your participation in JDRF events ensures that JDRF can continue funding critical T1D research. With your support, this research will continue to bring us closer to a world without T1D.

JDRF is an accredited 501(c)(3) nonprofit agency.
