Give our fight a shot in the arm


“You have diabetes.”

Three short life-altering words. Diabetes diagnosis also means you are at risk for a whole slew of other potentially deadly complications. Because living with diabetes doesn’t just mean keeping your glucose levels in check. Diabetes nearly doubles your chances of heart disease and stroke. In the U.S. it is the leading cause of amputations, kidney failure, and blindess in working-age adults. Diabetes is one of the leading causes of death in the U.S. Diabetes takes a heavy toll on America every day. It puts a tremendous strain on individuals and families. It steals our loved ones from us too soon. It costs our health system vast sums of money.
BUT WE CAN FIGHT IT.
And today your impact is twice as powerful—your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to the campaign total $100,000, by our generous donor. Your gift of $50 becomes $100, $100 becomes $200 and so on. And our fight doubles in strength with each new gift. Your gift (DOUBLED) will mean so much to the millions of Americans battling diabetes every single day and empower researchers, clinicians, advocates and educators, in their life-saving work.

We are so very grateful to you, Andrea. Without you, none of our work would be possible. All the best, Corey Gordon Chief Development & Stewardship Officer American Diabetes Association
