"Tis The Season for Kindness"



Our goal during the month of December, will
be highlighting random acts of kindness by, and for diabetics. Here are some
examples:



1. Helping friends or family members living life
as a diabetic.



2. Volunteer at a homeless shelter, or a location
(Food Bank) serving or giving food in your neighborhood.



3. "Save CHANGE" will Change The World
with “Global Diabetic Awareness”. Save your spare change, place it in an
envelope and donate that change to your local Food Bank/Homeless Shelter.





No matter what you do, or what someone does for
you, let us know by sending an email to seasonforkindness@ctwgda.org and we
will post your story on our Blog:

Also include with your email, the person/place/thing,
and description of the act of kindness. This should include the amount of
change & time as well as the location, as we “Change the World…Global
Diabetic Awareness” style.



We would also like to announce the collaboration
with Bob Hawkinson founder/administrator of the Website Living out Loud with
Diabetes (http://joyofdiabetes.ning.com/),
with our “Global Diabetic Awareness Community’s”. As we have always maintained,
although we are NOT a Social Network, we do believe that a strong Social
Network is a valuable tool for introductions and online interactions. Using the
strong base of Living out Loud with Diabetes and the unique approach of Mr.
Hawkinson, the “Global Diabetic Awareness Community’s” can begin to prosper
through Living out Loud with Diabetes.



As stated on http://joyofdiabetes.ning.com/ â€œGlobal
Diabetic Awareness is just launching and you will be seeing more about it on
this site. Our goal is to work with them to help raise Awareness of and about
diabetes. There are millions and millions of people in the world who have
diabetes and don't know it. There are millions and millions who do know, but
maybe arent being very successful managing or coping with the disease. We aim
to reach out to both......Stay tuned...:)”
