Corporate Partners
JDRF corporate teams & partners consistently go above and beyond to raise money for type 1 diabetes research.
And we can't thank them enough.
Their generosity increases the amount of research JDRF can fund — and accelerates life-changing breakthroughs towards a cure. Our partners welcome us into their corporate families and make JDRF a part of their culture. They encourage their employees to fundraise by forming corporate JDRF Ride teams, volunteering their time through JDRF events, taking on leadership roles, and engaging their customers and vendors on our behalf of JDRF. We thank each of our partners and their communities for their commitment to creating a world without type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Looking for a meaningful way to increase employee engagement, unify your team and build camaraderie?
Forming a JDRF Ride Corporate Team can help you do just that! In addition to supporting your employees, JDRF Ride allows you to create positive change in your community - and reach your organization's philanthropic goals.

National One Society Diamond Partners
Our National One Society Partners contribute more than $2.5 million each year to fund life-changing T1D research. The dedication and support of their employees, customers and vendors help us get even closer to a world without T1D.
Ford Motor Company has supported JDRF since 1983. In 1998, Ford expanded this relationship with the creation of the employee-driven Ford Global Action Team for JDRF (FGAT), combining the passion and power of Ford employees, dealerships, families, and friends, as well as key business partners from WPP, BP, ADESA and the UAW. With tens of thousands of volunteers working together, the FGAT has consistently raised more than $3 million annually over the past nineteen years. Under the leadership of Edsel B. Ford II, and more than 90 fundraising teams across 40 global sites, Ford has raised over $70 million to advance our shared goal to create a world without T1D.
