Memorial Fund
According to the latest CDC report, over 34.2 million Americans have diabetes. This means that over 10.5% of the country’s population suffers from the disease. It is the 7th leading cause of death and is an even bigger contributing cause of death.
Losing a loved one can be an unbearable pain for anyone. Diabetes is an incurable condition. It is manageable, but increases the risk of various other health conditions, making it one of the leading contributing or underlying factors in the death of Americans. Diabetic Footwear Store is proud to announce a memorial fund focused on etching the memory of your loved one in the hearts of people who are suffering from this debilitating disease.
Our Diabetes Memorial Fund
For long, history has stood testimony to the fact that memorial funds are long-lasting ways to honor the memory of loved ones. It is a way to prolong the memory of your loved one for generations. At Diabetic Footwear Store, we have created just the program for you to create a memorial fund in the name of a family member or a dear friend. The fund can then be used to make positive impacts in the lives of people suffering from diabetes.
How Does the Memorial Fund Work?
If you have unfortunately lost a family member due to diabetes, you can donate to a memorial fund. The fund will support other diabetics by providing them with specialized diabetic footwear. You would be surprised to realize how big a difference such a contribution can make in the lives of those suffering from this crippling condition.
Foot ulcers are common among diabetic patients. They are caused due to the undue pressure created by footwear that doesn’t fit properly. As diabetics are at greater risk of suffering from nerve damage, failure to feel pain can further deteriorate the condition of their feet. When someone receives specialized diabetic footwear through your memorial fund, they and their family members will remember your loved one.
Walking Your Way to Health
The fundraiser program is another program designed to enhance the lives of diabetics. You can walk your way to make positive contributions. Walk in the memory of your loved one and get sponsors to fund your effort for every mile you put on.
The funds are then used to make a positive impact on the lives of those suffering from this condition. The more you walk, the greater will be your contribution to the welfare of the patients.
Our diabetes memorial fund program allows you to add to the legacy of your loved one. It is a way to drive positive change and inspire progress. Such a memorial fund can bring together your loved one’s entire community. You can get other family members and friends involved and everyone will work together towards achieving a single goal.
