Your impact saves lives!

Rosie and I have been a team since April 2020. Not only does she make me feel safer as a diabetic by helping me catch my blood sugar early, she is also my best friend. By donating to EAC you can help them create teams just like Me and Rosie.

Why should you participate? Why should you donate?

In these unpredictable times, and with so much uncertainty, you can rest assured knowing your support for EAC helps provide life-saving care for the growing need in our community.

None of us know what the future will bring, but here's what we do know:

  • There is nothing (at present) to prevent Type 1 diabetes and no known cure.
  • Insulin therapy can keep someone alive. It can also introduce the risk of debilitating side effects that can rapidly become life-threatening, if left unchecked, including coma and death.
  • Managing diabetes is often tied to depression, isolation, and fear. It also adds a life-long financial burden.
  • Diabetic Alert Dogs alert to impending shifts in blood glucose, allowing time for necessary precautions

Plan your walk! Join us...Anywhere...Anytime...the weekend of June 3-5, 2022. We encourage you to commit to at least one mile or 2,000 steps.

Invite your family, friends, and colleagues to participate. Bring your Service Dogs or pets too! You can walk at your desk, in an office, in a parking lot, indoors, on a track, or organize an outdoor community event...right in your neighborhood
