Diabetes awareness, prevention and management is a signature project of the Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF).

This website is to help you and your club sponsor a diabetes awareness event. It can be as simple as distributing a one page Diabetes or Pre-Diabetes Risk Evaluation Form to your club members or another group, or making a presentation. Other options include sponsoring a Strides for Diabetes Awareness event or conducting a screening event for high blood sugar.

This site offers information, tools, resources, and instructions to help you with your diabetes campaign.

Approximately 230,000 Georgians have undiagnosed diabetes and more than 8 in 10 adults with pre-diabetes don’t know they have it. If our efforts can prompt people to get screened and treated for high blood sugar before organ damage occurs, we can help to reduce suffering and early death due to diabetes.
