Welcome to the "Third Annual Van Hiller Rock and Roll Backyard BBQ," a lively and impactful fundraising event dedicated to supporting Breakthrough T1d's vital mission. Join us for a spirited day filled with great music, delicious BBQ, and a community united in the fight against type 1 diabetes.

Breakthrough T1d, formerly known as JDRF International or the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, is on a mission to find a cure for type 1 diabetes and its complications by supporting groundbreaking research. The organization is steadfast in its commitment to developing new and improved treatments that enhance the lives of individuals with type 1 diabetes, ensuring they can live healthy lives as we journey toward finding a cure. JDRF's promise is to progressively alleviate the impact of T1D on those affected until it is no longer a threat.

By attending the Third Annual Van Hiller Rock and Roll Backyard BBQ, you not only get to enjoy a rocking concert in a cozy backyard setting but also contribute to raising awareness and funds necessary for advancing research and treatment strategies. It's a wonderful opportunity to come together with friends, family, and music enthusiasts while making a significant difference in the lives of those living with type 1 diabetes.

Join us in creating an unforgettable day of fun and philanthropy. Your participation and generosity will help Breakthrough T1d continue its critical work in removing the impact of T1D until a cure is discovered. Let's rock and roll our way to a future free of type 1 diabetes!

Whether you join us in person or contribute from afar, your participation is deeply valued and appreciated. Let's come together to make this event a resounding success and push closer to a world free of diabetes. Thank you for your support, and we can't wait to see you rock out with us at this year's BBQ!

This year, in addition to BBQ and music, we'll be adding the following to our day: boba tea, face painting, trampoline, and chalk art.
