It has always been important for Cascade Ice to support causes that truly matter to our fans. We know that a lot of our supporters drink Cascade Ice because they are diabetic, and must stick to gluten and sugar-free beverages. Thus, we are excited to share with you all that Cascade Ice will be working with the American Diabetes Association during the month of November to help promote National Diabetes Awareness Month!
We encourage you to read about and support the ADA’s campaign, “A Day in the Life of Diabetes.” They are asking Americans who suffer from diabetes to share a photo of a moment that captures what living with diabetes every day means to them. The photos will be used to build a mosaic image that will embody the message of “A Day in the Life of Diabetes.”
Whether you or someone you love lives with diabetes, take this opportunity to show your support and help raise funds for the American Diabetes Association. CVS Pharmacy will donate $1 to the ADA for every photo uploaded, up to $25,000!
