There are many children attending school daily, here in the United States and throughout the World, who are diagnosed with Diabetes type 1 and type 2. And everyday more and more are diagnosed. The Education and Awareness in Schools is not up to standards needed, and our Children suffer at the hands of unprepared and uneducated staff. This is not all their fault. There needs to be more Education and Awareness brought to the Schools, from Diabetes Agencies and Governments from around the World to help our children. And to provide a Mean’s for this Awareness to begin now, the World Diabetic KIDZ Foundation (WDKF) is offering Kidz around the World, the opportunity to be Ambassadors for this Cause. Who better to represent this profoundly important aspect of Awareness, than those whom are directly impacted. To get more information on how to be a part, send us an Email at [email protected], and we will gladly send you the Steps required to be considered as an Ambassador for “Global Diabetic Awareness 4 KIDZ”. And to assist in this Awareness effort, please sign the Petition to be presented by the WDKF to Diabetes Agencies Worldwide, to ensure we bring greater Education and Awareness to the Schools around the World.

SO IMPORTANT. Kids with diabetes deserve to feel safe at school just like everyone else.

My daughter has type 1 and the school nurse is barely there. She has to manage so much on her own while in class and it scares me every single day.

Teachers really need training on this. My nephew had a low blood sugar episode and the teacher thought he was just being lazy. Unacceptable.

thank you for doing this. too many people still dont understand the difference between type 1 and type 2 and it causes so much misunderstanding for my son.

About time something was done. The lack of knowledge in the school office is actually dangerous for these kiddos.
