Help us Find a Cure for Diabetes!

Dear Friends and Supporters of Diabetes Research,

We are thrilled to invite you to participate in this year's exclusive Casino Royale sponsor-only Reception hosted by Dr. Peter Arvan and Michigan Medicine. Recently, you should have received the 2024 Casino Royale Sponsor Packet. In gratitude for your support, Michigan Medicine is hosting an exclusive reception to showcase "Where the Money Goes" and the impact your sponsorship has on progress in diabetes research and treatment.

This year, the Rugiero family and Foundation Board of Directors have decided not to hold the annual gaming dinner event. Instead, we are focusing on bringing our sponsors closer to the heart of innovation by inviting you to the Michigan Medicine labs. Here you can witness first-hand how your collective contributions are driving the search for a cure for diabetes and a timeline of the progress over the past 14 years from your contributions.

Please review your sponsor packet and make your annual sponsorship contribution. We invite you to join us for this exceptional opportunity at Michigan Medicine on Wednesday, November 6th from 5:30-8:00 pm to see where groundbreaking research and progress are being made in diabetes research. You will be amazed!

Due to limited space at Michigan Medicine Research Labs, we cannot extend this invitation to all our valued individual ticket supporters of Casino Royale. However, we hope you will consider making a donation online this year to continue your support for diabetes research. We will also be live-streaming the Michigan Medicine reception, and WJR will broadcast live so everyone can be part of the day. Our online donation at www.rugieropromise.org.

Important: Mark your calendar for November 1, 2025, when we will celebrate an expanded 15th Anniversary Casino Royale's full event at St. Johns Resort in Plymouth. If you're interested in joining our planning team for this special anniversary event, please contact us at rpromisefund@yahoo.com.

Thank you for your sponsorship, contributions, and unwavering commitment to finding a cure for diabetes. Together, we are making a difference!

Warm regards,

Anthony Rugiero
