D.Sole Foundation: Diabetic Footcare for Underserved Communities

A nonprofit initiative providing diabetes education and diabetic foot care solutions to low-income communities, conducting research and developing accessible interventions to prevent foot deformities, ulcers, and amputations.

A person stands beside a table with a sign that reads "D.Sole Foundation: Diabetic Footcare for Underserved Communities."

This nonprofit organization addresses the diabetic foot care crisis in underserved, low-income communities where amputations are disproportionately high. We conduct research into accessible foot care solutions, give policy advice on diabetic foot care, provide community-based diabetes education, and develop interventions for preventing foot deformities and ulcers. Our mission is to bridge the healthcare gap by creating sustainable, affordable solutions that prevent life-altering amputations and improve the quality of life for vulnerable diabetic populations.


Knight-Hennessy scholars represent a vast array of cultures, perspectives, and experiences. While we as an organization are committed to elevating their voices, the views expressed are those of the scholars, and not necessarily those of KHS.
