Doug Clifford and Stu Cook of Creedence Clearwater Revival are pleased to be a part of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's charity CD, “Hope for the Holidays – Rockin’ Christmas for a Cure.”
They contributed a version of “Run Rudolph Run” to the CD, which serves to benefit the JDRF.
Juvenile Diabetes (Type 1) is an autoimmune disease that strikes children and adults suddenly, but lasts through their entire life. Approximately 24 million Americans have diabetes, and the number keeps increasing. Studies suggest that 1 in 3 Americans born in 2000 may develop some sort of diabetes during their lifetime.
As of now, there is no cure.
“Hope for the Holidays” is currently available at national retail outlets such as Best Buy. It can also be purchased on www.amazon.com, www.CDBaby.com, or downloaded on iTunes. All profits benefit the JDRF.
Other contributors include Weezer, Collective Soul, The Beach Boys, and Jon Anderson of Yes.
