Phil traveled to Rwanda
Children with type 1 diabetes in Rwanda will live longer, healthier and happier lives thanks in part to a program set up by Team Type 1, a professional cycling squad based in the United States, and a partnership of international government and academic health organizations.
Team Type 1's CEO and founder Phil Southerland returned to Kigali in February and brought together representatives from Rwanda's Ministry of Health, the Rwanda Diabetes Association, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, U.S. Embassy in Rwanda and the University of Pittsburgh to set up a project aimed at educating local doctors and patients about diabetes detection and access to information and donated supplies.
