Overview
Mission
Our mission is to provide families impacted by type 1 diabetes with the opportunity to connect, thrive, learn and grow despite the diagnosis.
What it reported doing in 2025
Family support kits for tid, newly diagnosed kits for celia: we have fulfilled over 50 requests since 1/1/25 for our program. The impact is immeasurable - these items are a lifeline for new families that are mentally and financial impacted by the t1d diagnosis. We streamline information, provide starter non rx supplies and connect them to offer guidance navigating the early stages of managing the condition. The celiac t1d diagnosis kit is a newer initiative aimed at helping families cope with the compounded challenges of both diagnoses, with a focus on economic equity for local support & free online resources where you live.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 87% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 80% for direct work, and 20% for grants.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
