TuDiabetes Wins Dosie Award for "Best Patient Community – Non-Brand Controlled" category!!

We just got the great news!! We won second place for Best Patient Community - Non-Brand Controlled (meaning that there is not a pharmaceutical company behind the community) for this year's Dosie Awards.


In a category that was packed with great communities, we came in after dLife and just ahead of Juvenation. Thanks to all of you for support and for voting for TuDiabetes! It is YOU who make the TuDiabetes family what it is!!


We want to take the opportunity to congratulate SixUntilme's Kerri Sparling and DiabetesMine's Amy Tenderich who came in first and second in the Best Patient or Caregiver blog category.


Last, we are happy to see that Children With Diabetes took the first place in the Best Brand-Sponsored Patient Community category, followed by the Diabetes Handprint initiative. This program was inspired by Word In Your Hand, a program of the Diabetes Hands Foundation, the nonprofit that runs TuDiabetes, licensed by OneTouch to help the diabetes community at large. Today, for every submission someone makes to the Diabetes Handprint, OneTouch makes a donation of $5 to a diabetes charity... among the charities you can choose from is Diabetes Hands Foundation, so we definitely encourage you to participate in the Diabetes Handprint.


Here's to MANY more triumphs for the diabetic community at large: all three winning communities were diabetes communities!!!
