We want to get to know you better, so we are starting a new fun way to see what our fellow Advocate users are up to. Every issue of our newsletter we will have a theme for you to become a part of. The theme for this issue is “Summer Sun and Fun.” We encourage you to get creative, get dressed up, go somewhere fun, do something spontaneous and capture it on photo. Feel free to include your pets, friends, family and even get your grandchildren involved. For example, during May, June and July head out to the beach, plan a trip, or just take a relaxing walk. After you capture your favorite moment, there are 3 ways for you to submit it to us:

1. Go to “Our Advocate Family” on Facebook and post it to our page.

2 Email it directly to costumerservice@diabeticsupply.com.

3 Simply mail it back with your signed AOB in the return addressed envelope in your shipment.

We will then review the submitted images and judge them based on how theme related they are. The Advocate user’s photo that identifies with the theme in a fun way will be posted in the next newsletter as the winner!

We look forward to seeing what “Summer Sun and Fun” you are having this year!

Disclaimer: Any image submitted will not be used for sales or solicitation. We will not use your image in any other format that in the August, September and October edition of the Advocate newsletter and on the Advocate Facebook page.
