I almost totally agree with Kev. They all suck. Or at least they mostly do.

I was always told to donate to the CDA because the JDF wasted too much money. Ha! To me it looks the other way around.

The JDRF at least has some advocacy groups, is starting an outreach program, and is beginning to try and count heads. But all groups still have a long way to go. IMO they have to lose the cover-my-*** mentality before they can inflict any real change.
