> Dear supporters and friends,

> I am pleased to share that we have reached our fundraising goal of $10 million for Dr. Faustman's project at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). It has been an exciting journey since we accepted the challenge of raising this critical funding for the first phase of Dr. Faustman's BCG Human Clinical Trial.  
>
> As most of our supporters know the Iacocca family has been funding type 1 research for more than 25 years.  Over the years all funding has been through they family's private foundation funds until 2004 when we created JoinLeeNow, the campaign to expand Dr. Faustman's regeneration research from the lab to human clinical trials.   
>
> Now that we have reached this important milestone we have made the decision to stop actively fundraising through what has become The Iacocca Foundation/ for type 1 diabetes - a public charity.  We will be accepting donations through December 31, 2008 when we will make our final committed payment to Dr. Faustman.
>
> As we look to the future we remain committed as always to being part of a cure for type 1diabetes.  The Iacocca family will continue to fund the brightest and best who are dedicated to ending this disease.  And we hope you will turn your time and resources to continue to support Dr. Faustman directly as she and her team at Massachusetts General Hospital prepare to launch a campaign to raise funding for the Phase II BCG clinical trials.
>
> Our dedication to find a cure was born out of the loss of Mary K. Iacocca a loving wife and mother who died of diabetes complications more that 25 years ago.  Today we are comforted that together we have been instrumental in bringing new hope and a potential cure closer to a reality.
