Jeremiah Trotter
I really admire Jeremiah Trotter for many reasons…
He has faced diabetes in his family (his story below) just as I have with my great grandmother who lost her battle with it.
The Jeremiah Trotter Foundation is committed to the awareness and elimination of diabetes through research and education.
His 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.
