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, 2013, 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. 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 2013, 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 fifth 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 1600 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. To learn more, visit
