ABOUT COMMUNITY HEALTH CHARITIES
Every 23 seconds someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with diabetes.
y $5 can buy a week’s worth of glucose tablets, an important treatment for low blood sugar episodes, for a child having fun while learning to thrive with diabetes at camp.
y $25 could provide an individual with a specialized cookbook to help them learn more about their disease, what and how to eat to manage everyday living.
y $200 could pay for one child’s happy day at our camp where using insulin, checking blood sugars, and watching for lows is part of everything we do.
Summer CampAmerican Diabetes Association
Kids running everywhere, swings are flying, water is splashing, and games are unfolding. It’s a typical summer camp in every way. Except One. Every one of the kids has diabetes. Here, for a few glorious days — and in many cases, for the first time in their lives — they’re just like every other kid. Laughing, playing, hanging out.
The effect is remarkable. Each summer, nearly 6,000 kids at dozens of camps across the country say goodbye to their camp friends and return home with newfound confidence in themselves, their future, and their ability to master a disease that leaves them feeling different. Providing this kind of life-changing impact for all people living with diabetes — and those at risk for the disease — is why we hold events, programs, and campaigns year-round.
