World Diabetes
Day PSA Campaign |
|
Desert
Dingo Racing, in cooperation with
the International Diabetes Federation's
World
Diabetes Day, is sponsoring
a World Diabetes Day Public
Service Announcement (PSA) Campaign.
People whose lives have been touched
by diabetes are invited to record
an online message at 12seconds.tv.
Are
you a parent of a child or baby
diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes?
What message of hope do you have
for other parents? Are you a
teen with diabetes? What can
we learn from you? If you're
an adult with Type 2, what advice
and encouragement do you have
for someone who's been recently
diagnosed? And for the millions
of people who have diabetes but
haven't been diagnosed yet, what
is your message?
Speak
from the Heart. Educate. Encourage.
Extend Community.
And
speak in your language. Researchers
estimate that there are 246 million
people with diabetes worldwide.
This is not a contest, it's a
chorus. Please add your voice
to this International effort
to educate as many people as
we can about diabetes.
Go
to http://12seconds.tv/rooms/WorldDiabetesDay
to post your video. No product
endorsements please. Submissions
close at midnight (GMT-08:00)
on World Diabetes Day, November
14, 2009.
Desert Dingo Racing will select
52 submissions to post on our
website for a yearlong campaign
of education and encouragement.
We'll broadcast a new video
each week to promote a new
message and different perspective
on diabetes.
If
you prefer to submit an HD video,
we will accept 15, 30 and 60 second
video messages. We ask that you
post your video on a hosting service
such as YouTube or Vimeo and send
the embed code to diabetes@desertdingo.com.
