Milan Moala: A Story of Strength and Resilience

At My Identity, we’re proud to support Diabetes NZ with our new Milan Bracelet, named after Milan Moala, an inspiring young Aucklander living with type 1 diabetes. Diagnosed two years ago, Milan continues to excel in kapa haka, waka ama, and slam poetry, proving that diabetes doesn’t define him. His passion and determination are what this bracelet represents.

Not only is Milan an incredible performer, but he’s also a powerful advocate for diabetes awareness. He has shared his journey through poetry, winning a trans-Tasman spoken word competition with a moving piece about living with type 1 diabetes. His story highlights the challenges many face but also showcases the resilience and strength of the diabetes community.

By purchasing the Milan Bracelet, you’re supporting Diabetes NZ, with all profits going directly to this important cause. This bracelet is more than just a piece of jewellery—it’s a symbol of empowerment, helping raise awareness and funds for the ongoing support of those living with diabetes. You don’t need to have diabetes to wear it—it's simply a cause close to our hearts.
