Aldridge Electric, Inc.

As we drive toward curing type 1 diabetes (T1D), we help make everyday life better for the people who face it. For nearly two decades, Aldridge Electric has supported Breakthrough T1D by investing in research to better understand and defeat T1D. The Aldridge family is committed to supporting Breakthrough T1D’s mission to find a cure for T1D – and we need your help.

Your support will allow Breakthrough T1D to continue to push forward towards better lives and ultimately, a cure for everyone living with T1D. Please join us in the fight against T1D.

With your support, we are creating a movement to improve and change life with T1D, advancing breakthroughs on the way to cures.

Why your support matters

Approximately 1.4 million people in the US and around 20 million globally are affected by T1D, an autoimmune condition caused by the immune system attacking and destroying the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This results in a life-long dependence on insulin.

As the leading global T1D research and advocacy organization, Breakthrough T1D helps make everyday life with type 1 diabetes better while driving toward cures. Our research strategy has two pillars: curing T1D and improving the lives of individuals with T1D. We have come a long way toward our goal of cures with the availability of automated glucose measurement and management systems, improved insulins, and a promising pipeline of therapeutic candidates that have the potential to modify the course of the disease and reduce insulin dependence. However, there is still a long way to go.
