Bumble Bee Foods is proud to partner with the American Diabetes Association® through our BeeWell for Life program – an online community of health-minded members who take simple steps towards a healthy lifestyle while doing good for others.
In January 2012, for every mile you walk/bike/run and log BeeWellforLife.com, Bumble Bee will donate $0.10/mile to a fund that will be equally split among the American Diabetes Association®, WomenHeart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease®, and Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization®. Starting in March, 2012, you will have new opportunities to earn points by completing challenges and logging your calories, and you’ll be able to choose which of the three causes your points go towards.
The mission of the American Diabetes Association is to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.
The Association leads the fight against the deadly consequences of diabetes and fight for those affected—by diabetes.
• Funding research to prevent, cure and manage diabetes.
• Delivering services to hundreds of communities.
• Providing objective and credible information.
• Giving voice to those denied their rights because of diabetes.
There is much work to be done. Current estimates project that as many as 1 in 3 Americans will have diabetes by the year 2050. This is not a future that we are willing to accept. To truly change the trajectory of this disease it will take a bold commitment of a strong, passionate network of individuals, organizations and communities united behind a single goal, to STOP DIABETES®
