With your help, we can change lives... 

Every day 90 Victorians develop diabetes… making it the fastest growing chronic condition in our state. Our goal of reducing the impact of diabetes in the Victorian community is complex and challenging and we need your help. By arranging a gift in your will to Diabetes Victoria it ensures our work with researchers, universities, hospitals, health service providers, corporate partners, community organisations and people with diabetes will continue and helps maximise our future impact.

By 2026, over 500,000 Victorians will be diagnosed with diabetes. With support and resources, diabetes can be well managed, and people affected by diabetes can live long, healthy and happy lives. Our need for your support has never been greater.
