club glucose helps kids manage type 1 diabetes with gadgets and fun
Welcome to the club!
Club Glucose partners with social workers at Chicago area hospitals to give kids the tools they need to help manage type 1 diabetes.
We donate gadgets like shot blockers, sticky covers that keep devices in place, smart phones to manage CGMs and pumps and alarm clocks that alert you when blood sugar is high or low.
We help kids in the club to stay active and engaged by covering the fees for sports, art classes, chess club and other interests.
How We Help
How We Help
Kids have to test blood sugar levels and get insulin injections every time they eat (and kids like snacks!). They also need to watch blood sugar to ensure they stay in a healthy range.
We provide gadgets to help mask the pain of the pokes and alarm clocks to help manage high and low blood sugar to keep our club kids healthy.
