Pharmasave is excited to announce its partnership with Diabetes Canada for a fundraising campaign dedicated to supporting D-Camps. These camps provide a transformative experience for children living with type 1 diabetes (T1D), offering them a safe and empowering environment where they can enjoy a genuine camp experience.

D-Camps: A Home Away from Home

For children with T1D, D-Camps serve as a home away from home, offering a unique place where they can connect with peers and trained professionals who understand their condition. These camps provide an authentic camp experience, complete with activities like hiking, canoeing, and team sports, all within a medically accommodating environment. By attending D-Camps, children with T1D gain a sense of independence, self-confidence, and resilience while fostering lifelong friendships with others who share their journey.

Supporting Families and Caregivers

The impact of D-Camps extends beyond the children themselves. Caregivers and families also benefit greatly from these programs. Caring for a child with T1D can be emotionally and physically demanding, often requiring constant vigilance and management of the condition. D-Camps offer a respite for caregivers, allowing them to rest assured knowing that their children are in a safe and supportive environment. By contributing to Pharmasave’s charity campaign, donors play a vital role in providing this much-needed relief for families affected by T1D.

Pharmasave’s Commitment

Pharmasave has consistently shown its dedication to community well-being. Through this partnership with Diabetes Canada, Pharmasave is reaffirming its commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of individuals affected by diabetes. By matching donations up to CAD$50,000 throughout the month of June, Pharmasave is amplifying the generosity of its customers and supporters, furthering the reach and impact of this crucial cause.

How to Donate

Contributing to this charity campaign is simple. Those interested in supporting D-Camps can make donations both in-store and online at dbts.ca/Pharmasave. Whether you choose to donate in person or from the comfort of your home, every contribution brings us closer to empowering more children living with T1D and providing them with a life-changing camp experience. Join us in this important campaign and help transform the lives of children with T1D today.
