The Great Australian Bite

 April's the month when people from all walks of life in NSW get together for a ‘Great Australian Bite,' helping to raise money for the 740,000 Australians who live with diabetes.

To host a ‘bite', it's as simple as 1, 2, 3...

1. Register to host a ‘bite' anytime during April 2008.

2. Invite workmates, friends or family to share a ‘bite' to eat.

3. Donate to help the fight against diabetes.

The bite can involve any meal held during the month of April 2008. It's so easy-share a ‘bite' with mates at work on a coffee break, have the girls over for a video night or even get the local neighbourhood together for a massive BBQ, the choice is yours.

Remember, no matter how large or small the bite, they'll be making a donation to Diabetes Australia-NSW and doing their bit to support people with diabetes and help fund research.

Join the ‘bite' and help the fight against diabetes! Thanks to the continued support from our primary sponsor, Saxbys Soft Drinks and print sponsor, Pinnacle Print Management, all funds raised will directly assist diabetes awareness, research, education and advocacy. Help support Australians who live each day with diabetes.

To be a part of the fun this April, register to host a ‘bite' by calling

1300 136 588 or go to http://www.diabetesaustralia.com.au/.
