Sophisticated and fun… there is no better way to describe the Promise Ball occurring on April 30, 2011 at the Fort Worth Omni Hotel. This extraordinary event, which benefits the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), will feature entertainment by widely popular musician Bret Michaels. Noted as one of the top fundraising events in Tarrant County, this high-profile Gala attracts more than 600 guests each year - including many of our local elite philanthropists and corporations.

Proceeds from this event fund research to help find better treatments and a cure for type 1 diabetes. In attendance will be a number of people directly affected by diabetes who have joined together to commit time and effort toward fulfilling their “promise” of fighting type 1. Generous corporate, community, retail, and individual supporters are instrumental to JDRF’s success.
