Overview

Mission

To support and empower individuals and families affected by type 1 diabetes through community, education, and advocacy.

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization has two primary programs: 1. Providing educational scholarships for young athletes with type 1 diabetes, and having those athletes serve as spokespersons to further achieve the organization's goals. 2. Collaborating with governments by consulting with local, state, and national health ministries to ensure access to needed supplies (i.e.glucose monitoring devices, test strips, etc.), diabetes medications (both insulin and non-insulin) to all individuals with diabetes and education for health care professionals.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 70% of its reported program spending out as grants.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
