   THANK YOU!

Kyle

Have you heard Kyle’s story of overcoming adversity to become a success?  Waking up to get ready for school, he immediately jumped out of bed and ran to get in the shower - but wait - he stopped and went in another direction.  Before he could get ready for school, Kyle looked down at his fingers and decided to use his pointer finger because it just wasn’t as sore as the other nine fingers, grabbed his needle and poked his finger. One of between eight and 13 pokes each day of his life, 365 days per year.  Kyle has type 1 diabetes.  Kyle and his family receive emotional and educational support from the local JDRF community. 
 
CHC-NE’s mission is to be a partner and an extended family member for the local JDRF and 17 other trusted health-related charities.  Our goal is to bond with amazing charities with employers across the state.  Your commitment to become a part of our family has continued to amaze us over the last 40 years.  We are filled with pride because you did it!  Your time, energy and financial support made a difference in the lives of people right here in our community.  It’s simple - your partnership with CHC-NE directly provides resources for people suffering - like Kyle! We are inspired by your generosity and your continued support drives us to continue our work in 2012! Together we are making a difference!  From all of us at CHC-NE, THANK YOU!

In this episode of Health Matters at Work, our host Jerry Franz brings together three individuals:

  • Lea Ann McNee from Mental Health America
  • Beau Ballinger from AARP, and
  • Tarnisha Brown from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
