November marks the beginning of National Diabetes Awareness Month- a perfect time to raise awareness about a disease that affects more than 15,000 US children each year. Type I Diabetes develops in children and young adults and prevents a person’s pancreas from producing insulin, a hormone that enables your body to get energy from food. Difficult to manage, Diabetes requires constant monitoring and influences many aspects of daily life.

Sleepwear manufacturer, Komar, has created a fun way to raise funds to support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) through its non-profit foundation, PJs For The Cure, pajama sets that directly benefit the JDRF.  Through this program, Komar will donate 100% of all sales from PJs For The Cure to the JDRF to help fund diabetes research. With styles for both women and children, you can combine philanthropy with holiday gift giving! Komar aims to donate $1 million to the JDRF and they need your help to reach this aggressive, but not impossible goal.
