Sneaker Friday - Helping to Raise Funds for Diabetes NZ

$2,530 raised

Participating in Sneaker Friday 2022

Nationwide

Please support this fund raiser as I believe that there is a need to raise awareness of the condition and the associated costs - every day is a balancing act of meds, food, exercise. Technology has made the management so much easier but comes at a significant cost which is beyond a lot of families in New Zealand as the basic tools are not funding for all.

The technology provides the fence at the top of the cliff, saving lives and $'s.

My youngest daughter was diagnosed as a Type 1 Diabetic in her teens. The hospital support has been outstanding and we are fortunate that I can afford the costs of the technology to assist her with the management of her condition.

Please support this initiative with me.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We are so grateful to everyone who got involved this year. It was only the second Sneaker Friday we've ever done, and we're delighted by how Kiwis stepped up and got involved.

$17,000 was raised thanks to you and others like you! We raised an incredible amount to support those living with Diabetes in Aotearoa.

Thank you again to everyone who joined us on Sneaker Friday to show Aotearoa - DIABETES MATTERS!
