Canadian Diabetes Association

Thanks to donors like you, the Canadian Diabetes Association is leading the fight against diabetes by helping people with diabetes live healthy lives while working to find a cure.

In our latest issue of Diabetes discovery we shared stories which show the incredible impact your support makes in the lives of Canadian families – families like the Goodeys for whom every member faces the daily challenges of managing their diabetes.

To ensure the progress in the fight against diabetes continues, please make a secure online donation right now. Your gift will be invested in diabetes research, education and support services in communities across the country, helping to bring hope and improve the quality of life for so many people living with diabetes or prediabetes.

Thank you! Your support is helping to bring us closer to a cure.
