Support People With Type 1 Diabetes

Why should I fundraise for T1International?

T1International has a strict ethical fundraising policy and we do not accept money from the pharmaceutical industry or anyone who seeks to impede our ability to advocate freely. We work with people to empower and educate them to create change around insulin and diabetes supply access and affordability. Whether you hold a bake sale, take on a personal challenge, or do something wacky to raise money for the cause, it all goes towards our advocacy work and life-changing projects on the ground.

Tinotenda Dzikiti, Zimbabwe

Tino is a person living with diabetes, based in Zimbabwe. A member of our Global Advocacy Network, Tino has spoken at our annual Summits and has held multiple powerful birthday fundraisers for T1International using JustGiving!

“My advocacy journey on the international level was inspired and built by T1International. I didn't know anything about advocacy or fundraising but I wanted to get involved and help amplify my voice.”


Eleanor Callaghan, United Kingdom

Eleanor spoke at our #insulin4all Summit and ran the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October 2023, raising over £700!

“Being from the UK, I am in a privileged position to receive free healthcare so I turned to fundraising to help support the charity alongside my advocacy. T1I has allowed me to connect and work with fellow diabetics around the world, which is a really supportive community. I hope the money I have raised will continue the great work of T1I and support all diabetics.” 


Krissy Lopez, United States

Krissy hosts DiabeTEASE Burlesque shows in Dallas, Texas. She has donated almost $4,000 from the past two shows and has a goal to raise $3,000 at the 2023 event!

“My commitment to fundraising for diabetes is deeply inspired by the incredible diabetic performers I know and work with. Many of these talented individuals face the daily challenge of managing their health without the safety net of health insurance. By fundraising for T1International, I'm supporting a cause I'm deeply passionate about and ensuring that the resources we raise are helping those in need, rather than bolstering the profits of pharmaceutical giants.”
