Triabetes seeks sponsorship. Individual athletes will collect donations through an online fundraising system. The ambitious nature of the project necessitates additional support from sporting goods and nutrition companies, the medical device and pharmaceutical industries, and other firms committed to the integration of education, fitness, and diabetes advocacy. Contributions are tax-deductible and may be monetary or in-kind; Triabetes encourages creative sponsorship. Sponsors will be recognized for their vital role in the success of Triabetes through logo placement on apparel and/or our website(s), special public announcements, and other marketing and publicity channels agreed upon by both parties.

Triabetes is a distinctive and timely opportunity for publicity. Currently, diabetes directly affects at least 1 in 15 Americans and is projected to become increasingly prevalent. Media coverage and sponsorship of recent ventures like Livestrong and Team Type 1 have demonstrated the sustainable and growing influence of athletes who overcome adversity, including diabetes, to achieve the incredible. Triabetes offers inspiring stories, multimedia marketing prospects, unique medical relevance, and a program for long-term internet presence.
