Your Giving Tuesday gift keeps critical research moving forward for rare diseases and type 1 diabetes.
For nearly 70 years, Pacific Northwest Research Institute (PNRI) has helped families facing rare diseases and type 1 diabetes find answers. Our researchers develop tools that shorten the diagnostic odyssey, uncover early drivers of disease, and give clinicians the information they need to care for patients in real time.
But federal funding cuts threaten this progress. As grants shrink nationwide, institutes like PNRI face serious challenges in sustaining the research that families rely on — today and for the future.
Your gift helps keep this work moving forward at a moment when breakthroughs are finally within reach.

How Your Gift Helps
Even small contributions make a meaningful difference.
- $20 helps sustain PNRI’s research mission during this critical time
- $50 supports ongoing discovery work in rare diseases and type 1 diabetes
- $100 strengthens essential scientific operations
- $250 supports PNRI’s collaborations with families, clinicians, and disease foundations
- $500 helps ensure research continuity when funding is uncertain
Every gift — at any level — protects ongoing scientific progress.

The Impact of PNRI’s Work
Rapid Answers for Rare Disease Families
PNRI scientists are developing diagnostic tools that help clinicians quickly and accurately diagnose life-threatening genetic disorders in newborns and children.
Earlier Detection of Type 1 Diabetes
Long-term studies like TEDDY and CASCADE help identify risk earlier and detect immune changes before symptoms appear – preventing dangerous medical emergencies.
Real Help for Real Families
Parents, clinicians, and rare disease foundations turn to PNRI for answers because our scientists have the expertise to interpret complex genetic variants — helping undiagnosed patients.
