Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for Diabetes Association Inc!
I am Ryan and I am 8 years old and was diagnosed with Juvenile diabetes at 26 months of age.
This unique camp is especially designed to support the social, emotional and medical needs of children living with the chronic, incurable disease know as diabetes.
Last year two of my brothers and I attended Camp Kyle and we had a blast! We fished, shot a bow and arrow, did sports, went on nature walks and made crafts each day. There was also entertainment brought in each day. The camp is staffed with nurses, diabetes educators and councelors all with diabetes. There are approximately 20 children in the Attleboro/N. Attleboro/Foxboro/Plainville/Mansfield area who are interested in attending camp this year. I want to help them to go so they can experience the same kind of fun I had there.
We will be walking on May 30, at 9:30 am in Fall River if you would like to join us. The walk is just over one mile or you can choose the longer route which is 2.25 miles.
Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. Many thanks for your support. With your donation it will be easier for parents to send their child with diabetes and their siblings to camp this July -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too.
