Help Gio On His Type 1 Diabetes Journey

Donation protected
Meet Giovanni "Gio" Trombetta - a sweet 5 year-old kindergartener from Eastchester, NY.  On April 14, 2021, Gio was rushed to Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital in New York City after being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.  He was then transferred to the Intensive Care Unit at Weill Cornell Hospital where he spent over a week being treated and cared for.  Thankfully, he is home and stable now with his parents, Michelle & Johnny and younger brother, Matteo.

His "new normal" entails frequent blood sugar monitoring, insulin shots, and a very strict diet.  Though he faces a difficult road ahead, Gio is handling everything like the strong and resilient young man we know him to be.

Both Michelle & Johnny will be forced to take unexpected time off from work in order to care for their son.  This, unfortunately, will cause a financial burden as Gio's medical expenses will grow considerably.  

We are asking for any donation to help the Trombetta family navigate this difficult  time.

Thank you.
