Something exciting is cooking at Diabetes Canada!

Aprons in Action, presented by Manulife, is our brand-new national cooking challenge and fundraiser launching March 2026. Help us raise $1 million for Diabetes Canada research and programs.

Learn more

Register as an individual or corporate team, create an original recipe, and take part in a fun skill-building series designed to boost kitchen confidence and support healthy, balanced eating.

As you cook and fundraise, you’ll get tips from our celebrity chef ambassadors and Registered Dietitians, connect with Canadians from coast to coast—and compete for the chance to cook live on stage with one of our celebrity chefs at the Celebration Gala and be featured in our digital cookbook.

You don’t need to log miles to make an impact—just an apron (and maybe a backup spatula).

Cook like it matters, because it does!
