Meet Sunny

Sunny is the little ray of light behind every bead we string. Named by our kids, Sunny reminds us that even on the hardest T1D days, there is always something to smile about.

Why a sun?

When Benji was diagnosed, we told him that just like the sun comes up every morning, we would get up every day and face T1D together. Then when Izzy was diagnosed three years later, we held onto that same promise. Sunny is that promise — made visible.

You will spot Sunny peeking out from our logo, hanging out on our packaging, and showing up in little surprises for our community. Every bead strand carries a bit of that sunshine.
