OUR MISSION
At the Lili Grace Foundation, our mission is to improve the lives of children with Type 1 diabetes in Zimbabwe. We are committed to enhancing access to life-saving insulin, essential diabetic supplies, mental health services, and education through a phased, scalable approach.
By steadily expanding our support and collaborating with existing diabetes charities, we strive to build a future where every young person affected by diabetes enjoys easier access to life-saving care.
OUR VISION
A Zimbabwe where there is uninterrupted access to insulin, essential care, and support for children with Type 1 diabetes. We envision a future free from stigma, where communities are educated and compassionate, and where families no longer bear the heavy burden of uncertainty.
OUR Values
Compassion
Compassion is at the heart of everything we do. We believe in walking alongside the children and families we support, offering empathy, care, and understanding as they navigate the challenges of living with Type 1 diabetes. Our commitment to compassion means listening to their stories, respecting their experiences, and meeting their needs with sensitivity and kindness.
INTEGRITY
Integrity is the cornerstone of our work. We are committed to honesty, transparency, and accountability in every aspect of our operations. Whether managing resources, building partnerships, or supporting the children and families we serve, we uphold the highest ethical standards to ensure trust and confidence in our mission. Integrity means doing what is right, even when no one is watching, and staying true to our values as we work toward a future of better access to care and support for children with Type 1 diabetes.
COMMUNITY
We believe that community is the foundation for lasting support and change. We are dedicated to fostering a sense of connection and belonging among children with Type 1 diabetes, their families, healthcare providers, and supporters. By building a strong, inclusive network, we empower individuals to share their experiences, uplift one another, and access vital resources. Together, we create an environment of mutual care and encouragement, where no one feels alone in their journey.
