NOVEMBER IS NATIONAL DIABETES MONTH

Cartridge World Hosts 4th “REFILL FOR A CURE” Fundraising Event For Diabetes Awareness Month
November is National Diabetes Month—a time to shine a spotlight on a serious disease that leads to potentially life-threatening complications such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness, and amputation.
Starting November 1, 2011, the public can once again help support the Canadian Diabetes Association by making a donation or using the refill services at Cartridge World on 5124 Tecumseh Rd. E. in Windsor. Customers can make a $1 donation and purchase a “Blue Circle” to be prominently displayed in the store and/or use the refill stores to have the profits donated back to the Canadian Diabetes Association.
In November 2010, The Windsor Cartridge World store supported the Canadian Diabetes Association for a month long promotion that offered the entire profits of their refill services from any new customer who mentioned the Canadian Diabetes Association.
“We are pleased to partner with the Canadian Diabetes Association for a fourth campaign,” says John Fraser, Owner, Cartridge World. “Cartridge World’s customers and staff have always responded generously to this worthy cause, and we appreciate whatever they can give to help support their community.”
“We feel that making a commitment to support the Canadian Diabetes Association is crucial. Diabetes touches the lives of thousands in our own community and by offering this promotion we hope to not only raise funds to find a cure but also raise awareness of this disease” says Fraser.
Cartridge World operates in the fast-paced information technology environment. Advancements in information technology over the past decade have transformed business to be dependent on computers and printers. Consequently, refilling printer cartridges has become one of the fastest growing industries in the world. Cartridge World is now the world leader in inkjet and cartridge refilling and one of the world's fastest growing franchises. There are over 1,600 franchised Cartridge World retail stores worldwide.
The Canadian Diabetes Association works in communities across the country to promote the health of Canadians and eliminate diabetes through our strong nationwide network of volunteers, employees, healthcare professionals, researchers, partners and supporters. In the struggle against this global epidemic, our expertise is recognized around the world. The Canadian Diabetes Association: setting the world standard.
