Besides, if a cause is that important to a PNM, she can always get involved with a group to raise money/volunteer for that cause.
Actually, there was a girl in my pledge class that was a diabetic, and had been nearly all her life. Our philanthrophy was Juvenile Diabetes. She always said that was the reason she pledged. I can only take her word for it.
