DIABETES CHARITY: A11 FOR 1

The 11th day of each month is a special day for us.

We call it"A11 for 1"

On this day each month we donate 100% of our website profits to a T1D charity of your choosing.

We chose the 11th for a couple of reasons:

01.

On January 11, 1922 insulin was first used in the treatment of diabetes by Frederick Banting. We want our donations to further the cause of making insulin affordable for all + finding a cure.

2.

There isn’t a day of the month with more 1’s in it than the 11th. We believe this is a great day to celebrate the amazing Type 1 diabetics all over the world. Many suffer in the shadows and we hope to help bring more awareness any way that we can.
