When Tami Balavage’s teenage son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, her world flipped in an instant. But instead of breaking down, she rose up — and built something extraordinary.
In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Spotlight on Good People, Tami shares the story behind Help A Diabetic Child — the nonprofit she co-founded that has now helped thousands of families afford life-saving insulin, glucose monitors, and support. But more than that, she opens up about the heartbreak, resilience, and grit it took to turn a diagnosis into a legacy.
If you’ve ever doubted whether one person can change the world — this episode is your answer.
