Hi all
Chris Baty, the President of Diabetes NZ emailed through this update from Ron Raab (President of Insulin for Life) this morning:
In total, we have now confirmed that donated insulin from Insulin for Life for 200 people for one month has either already been taken in by Nancy or will go in tomorrow in person.
These supplies are donated to FHADIMAC – Haiti Diabetes Association by Insulin for Life, with transport and handling costs paid by the International Diabetes Federation.
Many more donated supplies are ready to be sent urgently by Insulin for Life Global from IFL Austria, IFL Germany and IFL UK and others.
Ron
If you’ve not donated anything towards Haiti yet and are considering it, perhaps make a donation to Insulin for Life to help our fellow diabetics over there. I gave them some money – has anyone else out there donated? Even a small amount is bound to help!

What about meters? We have 2 Accuchek meters that we don’t use and would like to donate them. We have no strips for them though.
