ABOUT THE EVENT

Beginning in 2018, SpawGlass began contributing all proceeds from the clay shoot to Cook Children's Hyperinsulinism Center. To date, SpawGlass has donated $180,000!

​

One of the first programs in the nation, Cook Children's Hyperinsulinism Center uses a specialized team approach to treat CHI. Hyperinsulinism (HI) affects many areas of the body, so to truly treat every aspect of HI, each child is seen by top physicians, nurses, researchers and specialists in the field. These medical professionals have spent additional years of intense study and have dedicated their practice to focusing on CHI. This means that our patients have access to the best care available. It is this level of treatment that has helped earn our program a distinguished international reputation for extraordinary care and achieving positive  results.

 

More than 350,000 babies are born around the world each day. Of these babies, 7 newborns will be diagnosed with congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI). Receiving the right care is critical to preventing irreversible damage and improving quality of life, however, even in the United States, not every baby has the opportunity to be seen in HI centers with state-of-the-art diagnostic and therapeutic services.
