Breakthrough T1D Blue Jeans Day!
in General
Go Blue For National Diabetes Awareness Month! Please join us for the Breakthrough T1D Blue Jeans Day campaign during the month of November! Breakthrough T1D is asking local companies to encourage their employees to raise money for type 1 diabetes research by wearing blue jeans any working day during the month. A change in your dress code—allowing employees to wear blue jeans—will help to raise awareness of the 26 million Americans living with diabetes. Proceeds in the amount of $5 or $10 per participating employee will support Breakthrough T1D—the leading global organization focused on type 1 diabetes (T1D) research.
How Does the Breakthrough T1D Blue Jeans Day Campaign Work?
1. Select a day during the month of November for which employees will be encouraged to wear blue jeans to work.
2. Designate team leaders to collect donations of $5 or $10 from employees interested in participating.
3. Communicate the fundraising opportunity to employees and spread the word about National Diabetes Awareness Month.
