“As a young person living with diabetes, I know firsthand the challenges families face every day,” said Maximilian Kopp, Founder and Executive Director of the Kopp Foundation for Diabetes. “This gala is more than a fundraiser — it’s about building a community of youth leaders and supporters who believe in a future where innovation and compassion change lives.”
Founded by Maximilian Kopp and supported by a board of scientists, educators, and policy leaders, the Kopp Foundation for Diabetes is building a national movement of youth leaders and advocates. With campus chapters forming across the country — including UCLA, UCSD, Pitt, Temple, and UMass Amherst — KFD is amplifying the voices of young people in the diabetes space.
