Mutual Aid Diabetes - MAD

Call for mutual aid donations:
- CGMs, testing supplies
- Insulin
- Infusion sets, needles
- Omnipod 5s

Our goal is to get you what you need to survive and more. With your help, we can do this long term by getting further into production of supplies. But we need your help to assist with the waves of requests.

Please consider donating supplies or funds at mutualaiddiabetes.com

In solidarity,
MAD

Hi all! We’re making insulin! No really, we’re doing it right now!

And after adding 20+ volunteers to our current manufacturing group in Baltimore—with the goal of making this accessible to everyone—we’d like to invite you to participate in some of our events, volunteer, or donate funds if you can.

Please stay tuned for even more volunteering opportunities and an expansion of our work/projects.

War is a disability issue.

We support diabetics in Ukraine and are looking to connect to members from the surrounding effected areas (possibly in Romania, Poland, etc.).

** If you are able to receive supplies for distro, please reach out. **

“SCOOP—Russian attacks cut off access to the main warehouse for Novo Nordisk drugs in Ukraine, a source says. All of NN’s insulin in 🇺🇦 is stored there. Unless warehouse access restored, pharmacies only have a couple days of left. ➡️This is also a crime against humanity.”

📰 EXCITING MAD NEWS…

Join Mutual Aid Diabetes on Patreon! You can now set up a monthly reoccurring donation to MAD — so we can redistribute the funds to diabetics in need and offset our operating costs! We have been so thrilled with the number of donations to our general GoFundMe, but wanted to set up a way for our community to more sustainably support what we do — so we can plan for the long term.

There are 6 tiers priced between $3 and $275. It’s a lofty goal… but if we reach 400 patrons we’ll start a podcast!! 🎙 (Message us if you want to work on that, especially if you have experience producing a podcast. ) We want to vastly expand the educational content we bring to the community, but we can’t do it without you.

Help us get there! TAG a friend or two (especially a non-diabetic you know!) or COMMENT what you want to learn more about! Finally, SHARE this post and a link to our Patreon in your stories and with your friends! 🔗💙

This black history month, take some time to educate yourself on the history of mutual aid. We wouldn’t be able to do what we’re doing and help our community without the time and effort put in by the black community to establish mutual aid programs around the country.

We have a community member in need! Please consider donating to Quiiroi’s goFundMe, or directly to them via their cashapp ($quiiroi). They are in need of some assistance until they’re able to get private insurance.

For many, CGMs like the Dexcom G6 are inaccessible. It isn’t an issue of not wanting one, or clinging to admittedly outdated technology. The issue is cost. There is no patient assistance program to help afford their system.
