A-1 Self Storage Donates Money to Juvenile Diabetes Foundation

California self-storage operator A-1 Self Storage donated money to Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), a charitable funder and advocate of type 1 (juvenile) diabetes research worldwide. The mission of JDRF is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research.

Type 1 diabetes is a disease which strikes children suddenly. Its treated by multiple injections of insulin daily or a continuous infusion of insulin through a pump to maintain their health. Due to the unexpected and life-altering occurrence of type 1 diabetes, JDRF has established six unique ways to provide support:

  • A family network for community

  • Newly diagnosed support

  • Coordinates Diabuddies, a program thats child-centered and peer-focused

  • Parent Coffees, a forum event for encouragement, growth and further support

  • Online support for those affected and unable to interact through other programs

  • Research, seeking a cure and sharing the results to benefit affected children

The alarming rate of increased diabetes in our youth motivates us as a part of our San Diego community to work together and provide healthy options and quality care for San Diego kids, said Brian Caster, president and CEO of A-1 Self Storage. Juvenile Diabetes Foundation strives daily to find a cure and educate our community on how to support your childs health. Its with great pleasure that we support their admirable work.

It is the self-storage division of the Caster Cos., a third-generation, family-owned company headquartered in South California since 1959.
