Studio Extra x Diabaddie Organization: Celebrating Diabetes Awareness Month
At Studio Extra, we believe that beauty is not just skin deep—it’s also about caring for the community. In November, we proudly collaborated with the Diabaddie Organization to mark Diabetes Awareness Month, a time dedicated to empowering those affected by diabetes and raising vital awareness about this chronic condition.
Our Shared Mission
Diabaddie is committed to making a difference by:
• Providing Scholarships: They offer scholarships that allow children with type 1 diabetes to attend life-changing diabetes camps, where they can learn, grow, and connect with others facing similar challenges.
• Cultivating Cultural Awareness: The organization works tirelessly to increase understanding of diabetes within our communities, bridging the gap between clinical knowledge and everyday experiences.
• Building Educational Liaisons: By creating direct connections between clinical experiences and community education, Diabaddie ensures that important information about type 1 diabetes reaches those who need it most.
Empowering Through Action
One of the inspiring aspects of this collaboration was seeing young leaders like Amaris in action. Amaris hosted her own fundraiser on her Diaversary in partnership with us, raising funds to send children to camp. Her initiative is a powerful reminder that when we combine passion with purpose, we can transform lives and build a more informed and compassionate community.
Why This Matters
This partnership goes beyond fundraising—it underscores the importance of every professional in the beauty industry being knowledgeable about diabetes. As beauty providers, we have a unique opportunity to:
• Enhance Client Care: By understanding the challenges and nuances of living with diabetes, beauty professionals can create a more supportive and accommodating environment for their clients.
• Promote Health Awareness: Our work often puts us in direct contact with individuals who may be managing chronic conditions. Educating ourselves helps us offer more sensitive, informed, and personalized service.
• Build Community: Through collaborations like this, we’re not only beautifying lives but also contributing to broader health and wellness initiatives that benefit the community as a whole.
We are honored to have hosted Diabaddie and to have played a role in a cause that resonates deeply with our values. Together, we’re making strides toward a future where awareness, education, and community support go hand in hand.
