How Your Donation Helps
ICD’s impact has far exceeded its foundation. The movement has been supporting thousands of people and must develop a solid foundation to support the hundreds of interested volunteers who can make this organization sustainable. Your generosity helps reduce the costs for type one role models to support the programs and to open up opportunity for leadership development programs to those in financial need. Every program we run has built in financial assistance, because we know the deep impacts of connection and community for those living with T1D are lasting and life-changing.
We reinvest 6% in fundraising to ensure that our programs our sustainable and continue to provide support for the type 1 diabetes community.
100% of the last 100 surveyed participants have found our programs motivate them to live well with diabetes!
Empowering our Programs
After acquiring charitable status in 2016, ICD was able to launch the ICD Empowerment Fund, where 100% of funds donated go directly to making programs and services that offer powerful experiential education and social support for those living with Type-1 diabetes and their families accessible to all, no matter their financial status.
