Why support us?
In 2007 we helped 206 people with diabetes most of whom were children and 95.02% of all funds spent were given directly to others in need. Our combined costs for program administration and business operating expenses were only 4.98% of our expenses.
Print/View a checklist of our diabetes assistance programs and compare what we do to any other program, organization -- government or private -- and see why what we do is both unique among the diabetes helping industry and why so many people turn to us for help.

Dear Lahle and Volunteers,
Thank you so much for the beautiful quilts. They arrived today and Madison
and I unwrapped them, I read the card to her and she took them and immediately
laid down on them. I have attached a picture of Madison praying which was taken
a week after she was diagnosed which I hope you will like. The next pictures
are more recent pictures of Madison.
Sincerely,
Antoinette and Madison |
Dora the Explorer was sent to Madison, a todddler in VA who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes just one day after her 1st birthday. Madison was the very first client to request a quilt through this program -- so we sent her two to help celebrate her birthday and our first quilt! The quilt was made by Lahle from Islets of Hope and sent on 08/30/2006. Read Madison's Story. (Madison's Grandmother, Antoinette is just as amazing as her grandbabygirl!) |
