Donate to Endocrinology and Diabetes

Our mission at the Children’s Hospital at Montefiore Einstein is to improve the overall health and well-being of children with diabetes and endocrine disorders. As one of only three American Diabetes Association approved facilities in New York City, our Division of Endocrinology and Diabetes is equipped with the staff and tools to diagnose and treat Type 1 and Type 2 pediatric diabetes mellitus.

Every diagnosis begins with state-of-the-art clinical research, but the treatment only works because our nationally-recognized consultation services include each patient as a partner in their own care.

OUR TEAM

“Our team provides a full range of services, including in-depth evaluations and tailored care to patients and their caregivers to ensure a child’s condition is kept under control and they are enjoying the best possible quality of life.”

Camp Victory - American Diabetes Association (ADA) Camp

There’s something magical about American Diabetes Association (ADA) Camp—where children living with diabetes can simply be kids. Established in 2025, Camp Victory is a day camp created by our own Children’s Hospital at Montefiore Einstein (CHAM) physician, Angela R. Verardo, MD, in partnership with the American Diabetes Association. As Camp Director, Dr. Verardo leads an environment where children can build confidence, develop skills to manage their diabetes more independently, and experience the joy, friendships, and sense of community that make camp so special.

At Camp Victory, campers enjoy swimming, team sports, arts and crafts, and other activities designed to help them have fun while learning that diabetes doesn’t have to limit their adventures. Here, kids don’t just navigate life with diabetes they thrive, one adventure at a time, while building lifelong friendships and memories. To learn more about Camp Victory click here.
