Life for a Child receives generous donation

The International Diabetes Federation’s (IDF) Life for a Child programme recently became the recipient of a very generous donation from the Fondation de l’Orangerie and its donors. The donation, which will be spread over a period of two years, will help ensure the sustainability and expansion of Life for a Child.

Children with diabetes in the developing world are often in great need of assistance. Life for a Child is an innovative and sustainable support programme committed to addressing the issues of affordability and accessibility that separate children with diabetes in the developing world from essential diabetes care, supplies and education. The programme meets the immediate needs of children with diabetes (insulin, syringes, monitoring and education), builds local capacity and lobbies governments to implement sustainable solutions. Life for a Child currently supports 4,000 children in 26 countries.

IDF would like to extend its thanks to the Fondation de l’Orangerie and its donors for having chosen to support the Life for a Child programme.
