The Objective
Presently, there are 4.7 million residents of Ontario living with diabetes or prediabetes, making it a prevalent and escalating chronic condition in the region.
Diabetes carries a stigma; more than one-third of individuals with type 2 diabetes opt not to disclose their condition due to discomfort. For those managing type 1 or type 2 diabetes, external perceptions often result in feelings of guilt, shame, embarrassment, or isolation.
The Impact
Our aspiration is a world free from the repercussions of diabetes. This commitment drives our collaborative efforts to enhance the well-being of those affected. We facilitate knowledge-sharing and connections among individuals and healthcare professionals, advocate for supportive public policies, and fund research endeavors geared towards refining treatments and ultimately discovering a cure to eradicate diabetes. In the past seven years, the Cory Conacher Flame of Hope Golf Tournament has generated over $450,000 in support of Diabetes Canada. This funding aids the 11.7 million Canadians living with diabetes and contributes to research endeavors striving for a cure. A heartfelt appreciation extends to Cory and Shannon Conacher, as well as the generous sponsors and participants, who persistently champion the battle against diabetes.
