What Is Something That I Can Give To The People Who Donate To The Juvenile Diabetes Fund?

So, I wanted to start collecting money as donations for the Juvenile Diabetes fund, but I also wanted to be able to give the people who donate a little something. I also think that that would attract more people to donating. For example, when I collected money for the Breast Cancer fund, I gave out little pink Breast Cancer ribbons to each person that donated. I wanted to do something a little different for diabetes though. So, does anyone have an idea?

Should I Say Something To The Parent About This Or Stay Out Of It?

Before I start, let me start by saying that I completely realize this is absolutely none of my business, and I’ll understand any rude answers telling me to butt out and mind my own business, but let me explain why it has me concerned.
My friend has an 8 year old daughter, and her entire diet consists of anything sweet. She’ll eat cake and ice cream for breakfast! Everything she eats, she has the need to slather chocolate spread or caramel syrup all over it, or pour sugar on it. When I watch her over at my house, I have to hide my candy, or she’ll eat it all. The worst case was when I had bought a new package of Oreo cookies–when she had left, I looked and saw there was only 5 left. A WHOLE PACKAGE! Another case was when I let her make herself lunch (stupid on my part), and half the jar of jelly was gone in the end.
I know it isn’t my kid, and therefore it isn’t my business, but I am concerned this child is going to end up a diabetic. I know all about diabetes because I watched my grandfather succumb to it…aside from daily shots, by the time the disease was done with him, he had lost a leg due to circulation problems, was blind in both eyes, constant skyrocketing blood pressure, and the emergency room might as well have given him a VIP card for his countless visits.
Aside from diabetes, at the least, this child’s teeth will decay.
Should I say something to my friend about this? I just thing this child’s health is in grave permanent danger if not corrected. Diabetes is an incurable disease…it’s not something that will go away in 10 or 20 years.
Again, I know it’s none of my business…but I’m worried for this child!
