Christina Rowlandson said: “These and other supplies while costly are of utmost importance to health and safety. Unfortunately, the… cost of purchasing such supplies is extremely high. Furthermore, there are supply chain issues in part due to our small island status.”
CBCA Inc, an administrator of employer-sponsored self-insured health benefits, recently donated $3,600 to the support group.
“With this donation, the Cayman Diabetic Support Group hopes to make a real difference to those persons affected by these costs, in particular those who have insurance, but no coverage,” Ms Rowlandson said.
“When CBCA learned from Christina Rowland-son… of the prevalence of diabetes in the Cayman Islands, we knew we had to do something,” said the company’s CEO and president Ken Di Bella.
“On fairly short notice, we spearheaded a campaign to raise funds to help provide the much-needed assistance this area needs. We are proud to have partnered with several of our vendors and are happy to present this check to the Diabetic Support Group in the amount of $3,600 to join in the fight against diabetes. CBCA supports a healthy tomorrow for the citizens of the Cayman Islands,” he added.
The support group also received a donation from Cayman First of $1,000 recently.
