Empowering Lives Through Diabetes Education and Care
For over a decade, Diabetes Empowerment International has been dedicated to transforming the lives of individuals living with diabetes. Originally founded as Marjorie’s Fund, the organization has expanded its reach across three continents, focusing on the needs of patients in resource-poor areas. By establishing clinics, training local healthcare providers, and providing direct-to-patient education, the foundation aims to create sustainable healthcare solutions.
Education is at the heart of this mission. By empowering individuals with knowledge, they can share that information within their communities, creating a ripple effect of awareness and support. The organization also emphasizes economic empowerment through income generation projects, enabling patients to afford their diabetes care and supplies. The goal is to teach individuals how to thrive with diabetes, rather than merely survive.
