World Diabetes Day is November 14th

If “diabetes” were a country, it would be the third largest in the world, behind China and India. More than 370 million people are now living with diabetes and millions more are at risk.

While November is National Diabetes Month, and today in particular, researchers and nonprofits around the world unite to commemorate World Diabetes Day, the need for continued research towards treatments and cures remains strong.

Stand together with leading researchers and charities worldwide to help cure diabetes. In recognition of World Diabetes Day on November 14, 2023, America’s Charities is celebrating the following members who are making a difference in the fight to end diabetes.
