We, at the Diabetes Hands Foundation, are proud to present the 4th annual Big Blue Test Video 2012 featuring a community of amazing individuals touched by diabetes! We’re aiming for 20,000 participants this year! Will you be one of them?
We believe that no one touched by diabetes should ever feel alone, because together we become stronger and have the power to generate positive change in ourselves and our community. Instead of looking at the disease, Diabetes Hands Foundation seeks to understand, connect and energize the millions of people living with this condition.
Diabetes Hands Foundation is pumped to bring you the fourth year of Big Blue Test!
The Big Blue Test helps YOU get active while raising donations for life-saving supplies, treatments, and patient education to non-profit organizations that serve people in need with diabetes.
Diabetes, or not, YOU can be a part of this third-annual grassroots movement! In 2012, Big Blue Test will be open from October 14 through November 14. The test ends on World Diabetes Day.
How can you be a Big Blue Tester? It’s easy!
Big Blue Test Basics:
If YOU have diabetes…
Test your blood sugar
Get active for 14-20 minutes – dance, swim, walk, jog, cycle, jump rope, whatever gets you movin’!
Test your blood sugar again, and record the results at BigBlueTest.org
If you don’t have diabetes…
Get active for 14-20 minutes – dance, swim, walk, jog, cycle, jump rope, whatever gets you movin’!
Then visit bigbluetest.org to record your activity!
Trust us, it works!
Big Blue Test website aggregates all of the blood sugar data collected and calculates the effect of the physical activity. In the past three years, just 14 minutes of exercise has decreased participants’ blood sugar level between 15 and 20 percent, on average.
PLUS!- If 20,000 tests are logged before November 14th, $100,000 will be donated to diabetes-related nonprofits.
Let’s Big Blue Test it together, community style

Hi,
I have family members that I would like for them to see this video regarding the Big Blue Test with Elliott Yamin. Could someone please tell me what channel(s) this will air on so I can notify them of it. I believe the video will possible motivate them to get out of the and exercise more, at least that’s the plan. This truly is an awesome video. Thank you.
