Sonia Nabeta Foundation We believe in an Africa where children with type 1 diabetes have an equal chance at long, healthy, productive and gainful lives .

The Sonia Nabeta Foundation aims to alleviate the hefty cost of treatment and provide holistic mind, body and spirit healthcare for low income children with Type 1 Diabetes in Africa (starting with Uganda). For these underserved communities, the Sonia Nabeta Foundation will partner with healthcare providers and other partners around the world to:

Provide blood sugar monitoring devices, test strips, Hba1c monitoring and other essential tests and supplies;

Host holistic wellness workshops that integrate the mind, body and spirit into the T1D care and management regime;

Sponsor awareness campaigns, diagnosis drives and healthcare worker training to reduce deaths from lack of awareness and/or diagnosis;

Advocate for T1D to be part of standard emergency and non-emergency procedures at all general hospitals.

CHOOSE PEACE. International Day of Non-Violence today and we choose peace! There are many ways to be strong as a warrior, and today we celebrate the strength it takes to choose patience, empathy and understanding, to listen even when we disagree, and to treat one another with kindness.

At home, at school, in our communities and everywhere in between, may we always choose peace. πŸ’œ

INJECTION SITE GUIDE. Rotating insulin sites is an important part of management because changing where you inject regularly helps keep the skin and tissue underneath healthy and helps insulin reach where it needs to go. So, warriors, let'sremember to give your favorite spot a break and rotate. And if you need more rotation guides, just ask your warrior educator or your nurse πŸ’œ
