Marsh to sponsor golf outing for diabetes research

INDIANAPOLIS Marsh Supermarkets earlier this month announced it has committed to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation to be the presenting sponsor for the Swing for a Cure golf outing that takes place July 21 at the Prairie View Golf Course in Carmel, Indiana.

Marsh’s 41 area pharmacies will be involved in promoting the event to patients.

In 2003, JDRF unveiled From Research to Reality: the Campaign to Accelerate the Cure for Diabetes. This five-year campaign hopes to raise $1 billion to dramatically increase the pace of research progress, and accelerate JDRF’s ability to turn the dreams for a cure for Type 1 diabetes and its complication into reality. From the monies raised in this golf outing, over 85 percent of every dollar raised goes directly to the mission of JDRF to find a cure.
