Thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page!

 

Please help me to help ALL families with an insulin dependent child learn they’re NOT ALONE in dealing with this potentially debilitating disease... Insulin dependent, type 1, kids CAN live a full and healthy life *IF* they learn how to well manage this disease early in their lives. The Diabetic Youth Foundation is a vital component.

When my daughter Krystle was diagnosed at the age of 9, the Diabetic Youth Foundation changed my family’s world. I don’t know what I would have done without their help. As a single mom with 3 kids, one who was just diagnosed with a major life long health issue requiring me to become fully knowledgeable and have a complete understanding in order to give her the best chance of living a healthy life, we needed them more than I can say!

The DYF helped us in every way AND it was fun for my daughter, her sibs and me too!! Our Krystle had so much fun that she returned years later to be a counselor and now Krystle Samai is out in the working world, healthy and successfully totally dedicated to helping ALL children and young adults live their BEST life possible while dealing quite well daily with her own diabetic needs. I am uber proud of her and now I’m here to help raise money to create the opportunities for other single moms and kids to receive the same generous scholarships that we were blessed to receive over 16 years ago.

Please help me support my daughter, Krystle, and to empower many other children with futures just as bright as hers. You can sponsor me or join our TEAM to raise funds for the DYF to include the children whose families need some help to afford this educational camp which could literally save a child’s life - or certainly change the family's once fearful dynamic into one of fun, joy and hope for a healthy future for their child!!

 

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. For more information about the Diabetic Youth Foundation please check out their website at www.dyf.org Until then, many thanks for your support, your friendship and your encouragement. Your gift will help to improve the lives of thousands of children and teens living with diabetes today and for those yet to come.

Thank you and let's blow my $1,000 goal out of the water!!!!
