The
mission of Gulf Coast Diabetes Foundation
is to establish sources of funds and administer
these funds to benefit people with diabetes in the
Florida Gulf Coast Region. Grants will be provided
to healthcare providers, organizations and community-based
programs for supplies, services, education and research
for the care of Diabetes and its directly related
complications as funding permits and the Board approves.
All
funds collected are spent in our local communities.
Activities supported by the Foundation include:
Scholarships to help defray
the cost of diabetes management education courses.
Support for people with diabetes
through grants in conjunction with local health
care agencies.
Scholarships for children
with diabetes to attend special summer camps.
Diabetes education for the
community and health care professionals.
Assistance to purchase informational
books, films and videos about diabetes for local
public libraries.
