2019 IMPACT REPORTIt’s Time toTurn the TidePartnering with Canadians to End DiabetesRight now, 11 million Canadians are living with diabetes orprediabetes. By any definition, a disease that affects one-thirdof a country’s population is an epidemic.Since 2000, the number of Canadians with diabetes has doubled. Today,one Canadian is diagnosed with this chronic progressive disease everythree minutes. Canadians as young as 20 years old face a 50 percentchance of developing diabetes in their lifetime. For First Nations people inCanada, that risk increases to 80 percent.Diabetes Canada has beenleading the fight againstdiabetes since 1953. Withsupport from donors andpartners like you, we aretaking a Population Impactapproach that allows usto support Canadians withdiabetes or prediabeteson a national scale.2The impact diabetes has on people’s lives, and our healthcare system,is staggering.
