THANKSGIVING HOPE
The Camp Fire has deeply affected our sister community of Paradise and beyond. As we sit down in our homes for Thanksgiving dinner, we realize that many of our colleagues, friends and patients with diabetes, will celebrate Thanksgiving in a shelter, facing an uncertain future.
World Central Kitchen is making and serving 15,000 Thanksgiving meals as a gesture of love and community to those displaced by the fire. Bev and her boys volunteered at the World Central Kitchen to make over 500 sandwiches for the first responders and meals for local shelters. But, when an entire town is destroyed, there is so much more to be done.
Coach Beverly and Anne are donating $5,000 to local Camp Fire Organizations through our Online University sales. It’s our message of hope to those struggling through this crisis that, “we believe in you.”
If you are interested in contributing, here is a listing of Camp Fire Organizations.
A heartfelt thanks to all of you who have reached out to us and contributed funds or asked how to help. We love and appreciate our diabetes community. You are AWESOME.
This Thanksgiving, we are especially thankful for all our colleagues and friends who are dedicated to improving the lives of those living with diabetes.
We wish you all love, laughter and the gift of deep connection at your holiday gathering this year!
