DANCING UNDER THE STARS FOR A GREAT CAUSE



September 15, 2007 (Atlanta, GA) - A recent, eye-opening diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes is the reason Becky Lewis, a receptionist at the Douglasville Police Department, in Douglasville, Georgia is planning a fundraiser for the American Diabetes Association. The event is scheduled for Saturday, October 6, 2007 at 7:00 p.m. at O’Neal Plaza, 6694 East Broad Street, Douglasville, Georgia 30134.

The cost to attend is $5.00 for each individual, $10.00 per couple, and $15.00 for each family. Children 10 and under are free. All proceeds benefit the American Diabetes Association. The event will feature games for the children, prizes, and snacks.

“I have a grandfather, a mother, an aunt, an uncle, and an older brother and sister that are all insulin dependant Type 1 diabetics,” Mrs. Lewis said. Mrs. Lewis has four children and seven grandchildren that all stand a good chance of becoming the fourth and fifth generation of what seems to be a family disease.

The American Diabetes Association is the nation's leading 501(C)3 nonprofit charity providing diabetes research, information and advocacy. All donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law. For more information on the American Diabetes Association, please visit www.diabetes.org.
