JDRF’s Heart of the Home Kitchen Tour
Gave Visitors Inspiration for their Kitchen Renovation
Blue skies and mild fall temps greeted 300 visitors as they toured 10 magnificent kitchens in JDRF’s self-guided Heart of the Home Kitchen Tour on Thursday, November 14th. St. Louis’ central corridor offered visitors a variety of decors from country casual to sleek and modern – each showcasing gorgeous materials in rich colors, stunning surfaces and layered textures for backsplashes, cabinetry, flooring and lights. Open-concept floor plans also provided access to living and dining rooms that lead to generous great rooms and kitchens.

“We are honored every November – Diabetes Awareness Month - by the generous participation and support of builders, designers, home owners, restaurants and caterers,” said M. Marie Davis, Executive Director of JDRF Greater Missouri and Southern Illinois Chapter. “This year’s Kitchen Tour brought the event’s total fundraising to more than $120,000. That impressive sum goes directly to JDRF as we fund research to significantly improve the lives of people with T1D (type 1 diabetes) and move forward on the most promising opportunities for better treating, curing and preventing diabetes.”
