Welcome to The Diabetes Foundation of Mississippi

Our mission is simple—we save lives every day! The Diabetes Foundation of Mississippi (DFM) is the state's premier nonprofit health organization working to prevent diabetes and associated complications as well as work to improve the lives of every child, adult, and every family touched by type 1 or type 2 diabetes. We accomplish this through education, support, advocacy, medical assistance and research.

Walk in support of a Grandmother who cannot afford her medications or to help a newly diagnosed child attend summer diabetes camp through your generosity.  Everyday miracles happen from your caring and support!
