Middle school is a big leap: especially for families managing type 1 diabetes. That’s why we created EmpowerED (Pilot), a program supporting underserved families during this crucial transition. From practical resources to heartfelt community, we’re here to bridge the gap with courage, knowledge, and hope.

Let’s amplify each other’s voices and build a future where no family feels alone on this journey. 💙❤️

Every voice matters: especially our youth. When Jasmine, a passionate participant from Diabetes Chronicles, bravely shared her journey living with type 1 diabetes at her school, powerful things happened. Her story inspired school officials to create dedicated safe spaces and better access to diabetes care for students!

This is real change led by real young leaders. At Kendall Wyche Foundation, we're proud to amplify voices like Jasmine's, turning everyday stories into policy action. Together, we’re building healthier, more equitable communities: one youth advocate at a time.

Every family deserves a fair shot at diabetes care. Too often, African American and Hispanic youth face real barriers: from lack of access to care and diabetes technology, to limited culturally sensitive education. At the Kendall Wyche Foundation, we're changing the narrative by creating safe spaces, empowering programs, and resources designed for YOU. From community clinics to classrooms, we’re building hope, courage, and connection: so no one feels left behind on their diabetes journey.

Taking care of loved ones with type 1 diabetes is a daily act of courage, but during the holidays, stress and burnout can sneak up on even the strongest caregivers. 💙

Our "Caregiver's Corner: Nurturing You" journal is here to support your mental well-being: filled with small self-care actions and gentle encouragement for every day of your journey.

💥 It's — But This Isn't Just Another Campaign 💥

It’s a call to legacy.

When my daughter Kendall whispered, “Mommy, please don’t let me die here,” after her Type 1 Diabetes diagnosis, my world cracked—but it also awakened something unstoppable.

From that moment, the Kendall Wyche Foundation was born—not out of charity, but out of necessity. Out of grit. Out of generational love. 💙

Today, families are still facing this diagnosis without resources, without access, without hope. We are changing that with:

🔹 E.A.T. Initiative – Food justice + nutrition education for T1D kids
🔹 MindCare T1D – Mental health support for young warriors + parents
🔹 Field of Dreams – Empowering T1D athletes through sport + advocacy
🔹 Mastering Diabetes in Sports – A game-changing program for performance + survival
🔹 And more…

This isn’t a donation. This is a declaration.
A decision to stand with us, to stand for them.
This is your moment to seed impact that outlives you.

Let’s turn blood sugar into bold action. 💪🏾💙

🎉 One Year Strong! 🎉
It’s hard to believe it’s been a whole year since the Kendall Wyche Foundation, Inc. was born out of one mother's unwavering love and determination to create change for her daughter living with Type 1 Diabetes. What started as a personal journey has sparked a movement in diabetes advocacy, and today, we are proud to say that we’re just getting started! 💪

In just one year, we've built partnerships, launched impactful initiatives like MindCare T1D, E.A.T., and EmpowerED, and worked tirelessly to increase awareness about the emotional, physical, and financial challenges of Type 1 Diabetes in underserved communities. Every step we take, every program we create, is a testament to the fact that one mother's journey can truly spark a revolution. 🔥

Thank you to every donor, partner, volunteer, and family who has believed in us. Your support has helped transform our vision into action. Here's to the next chapter of growth, advocacy, and empowerment! 💙

Let’s continue this journey together—because we’re stronger when we rise together. 🙌
