Breaking barriers and chasing dreams: on and off the court! 🏀 Meet Malik, one of our Field of Dreams athletes, who’s shattering T1D stereotypes every time he laces up his sneakers. Diagnosed at age 9, Malik refused to let type 1 diabetes hold him back. Through courage, discipline, and support from his family and coaches, he learned to manage his glucose: and still hit every layup with confidence!

Malik is proof that can light up any field with strength and joy. At the Kendall Wyche Foundation, we’re proud to stand with athletes like Malik as they inspire and empower our entire community.

Every kid deserves the tools to thrive with type 1 diabetes: no exceptions. Yet too many Black and Hispanic youth face barriers accessing life-changing tech like CGMs and insulin pumps.

At the Kendall Wyche Foundation, we’re breaking down those barriers. Through advocacy, resource guides, and hands-on programs, we help families secure the devices they need for safer, brighter futures.

Let’s close the diabetes tech gap together! If you’re ready to partner or support our work, join our community or get in touch today. Empowerment starts with us. 💙❤️

Young leaders. Real change. đź’ˇ

Youth voices from Diabetes Chronicles are driving powerful change: shaping healthier lunches at school, educating peers about type 1 diabetes, and showing up strong on the field and in their communities. Their courage and advocacy inspire us all to rethink what’s possible with diabetes, and remind us: every story matters.

At Kendall Wyche Foundation, we celebrate these trailblazers and champion spaces where youth lead the way to a better, healthier future.

Every child deserves access to the diabetes technology that keeps them healthy and thriving. But for many underserved families, cost stands in the way. Thanks to our incredible donors, we’re closing the tech gap: providing lifesaving tools like continuous glucose monitors to children who need them most.

Your support means parents can sleep a little easier and kids can chase their dreams with confidence. Together, we’re building equity, resilience, and healthy futures in our community.

Let’s keep making a difference! 💙❤️

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.

💥 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. 💪🏾💙
