The Jeremiah Trotter Foundation is committed to the awareness and elimination of diabetes through research and education. The foundation hopes to accomplish:

• Fundraising to donate to laboratories focused on discovering new treatments as well as ultimately finding a cure.
• Providing monetary funds for other non-profit organizations dedicated to increasing the level of knowledge about diabetes.
• Creating additional avenues to make educational resources increasingly available to the public.
• Helping the inner cities’ public education systems develop more informative health programs: including preventative practices against diabetes.

Personal Story
Jeremiah is personally motivated and dedicated to his foundation because of his real life experience with this disease. Growing up in Hooks, Texas, Jeremiah struggled watching his younger sister go through the pains and inconveniences of having diabetes. He witnessed her undergo the tiring task of administering insulin injections every day. After the passing of his father, Jeremiah knew he wanted to create a foundation in his memory. He further decided to focus the foundation on the awareness and elimination of diabetes in honor of his 24-year-old sister with this disease. Through The Jeremiah Trotter Foundation, Jeremiah hopes to prevent any person from going through what his father and now sister must endure.
