“We all had a fantastic time working on this show and we appreciate everyone’s support at the silent auction, raffle, and flower and bake sales.  So many people made this year’s ACTT production successful.  And we were able to raise more than $27,000 for JDRF’s pancreas project to improve the lives of people with diabetes,” said Sally Lemkemeier, ACTT director and senior at John Burroughs.

 

ACTT, to date, has raised more than $152,000 for JDRF, the largest global charitable supporter of T1D (type 1 diabetes) research.
