You Tube Tuesday #195

If I had to guess where the cure for diabetes would come from, I would say the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI).

DRI is focused on research to find a cure. That is their number one goal. Now you have a way of helping too. They have created the "Be Part of the Cure" campaign.

You can literally be part of the “CURE” by making a donation (as little as $10) and upload a photo and personal story into the virtual mosaic that spells the word C-U-R-E. You will be able to see the collage filling up with thousands of photos and stories and can search for yourself and those who you know. Two corporations supporting this effort have agreed to match up to the first $25,000.  The final CURE image – with your photo - will be printed on a giant banner that will hang in the Diabetes Research Institute. Additionally, those who make a minimum donation of $50 will receive a mouse pad with the final CURE image. 

Click here to upload your photo, make a donation, and be part of the Cure!

There is a Ninja in the mosaic. I wonder if you can find him. ;)

Tee hee, there is a Jr. Ninja in the same letter as the Ninja boss. ; )

I love the "CURE" mosaic idea. The video is also very moving and powerful. Go DRI!

And yet another jr ninja in the R. :)

This is such an awesome campaign. There just might be a dorky girl who poses with her cat lurking at the top of the E. :) I figured Pete could use a little help with his Christmas shopping - so he'll be glad to know he's bought me a mouse pad. LOL

Thanks for the heads up! Gotta find out which pic the kid wants me to use. :)

Thanks for posting this George.

The more I'm learning about the DRI, the more I appreciate what they do. I appreciate your help in spreading the word about this.

Me and my favorite diabetic are in the "U", inside edge, left side, maybe 1/3 down from the top. :-)
