The Diabetes Foundation of Mississippi is unique for many reaons. We are unique in that every dollar raised stays in the state. We are unique because we are the only nonprofit diabetes organization that works directly for Mississippians of all ages with type and type 2 diabetes.
This weekend was Camp Kandu where we provided a weekend of fun, excitement and education for over 100 parents and kids with diabetes. We had Lillie Grace (5) assisting Kelli (5) with her blood sugar. Lillie Grace did not understand why Kelli did not know how to do it on her own. We had Sadie (3 and a half) singing at breakfast, "You Are My Sunshine!" It was a beautiful weekend with much laughter and bonding as families came together to make new friends and learn to live well with diabetes. These are the things which make the DFM unique.
