I Challenge Diabetes (ICD) was founded by Chris Jarvis, a former Canadian Olympic rower living with type 1 diabetes. During his athletic career, Chris recognized a significant lack of understanding and support for those managing type 1 diabetes. This inspired him to create I Challenge Diabetes—a charity dedicated to empowering individuals in the diabetes community with the skills, resources, and inspiration to take control of their health and live vibrant, fulfilling lives.
What began as a grassroots movement has grown into a national organization, building a strong, supportive community for those affected by diabetes. Through educational programs, mentorship, and ongoing support, I Challenge Diabetes enables individuals to take charge of their health and well-being. Since 2015, ICD has proudly delivered over 1,000 programs in more than 125 cities across Canada, offering over 74,000 opportunities for mentorship, training, and empowerment.
