Next Monday, April 14, will be Raise Your Voice Day, a day dedicated to increasing awareness about Type 1 diabetes through blogging, volunteering, fundraising, and other efforts.

The day was created by Kerri Morrone, who writes about her life with Type 1 diabetes on the blog Six Until Me. You can read more about the Raise Your Voice initiative in Kerri’s posts “Raise Your Voice: Ideas,” “Raise Your Voice: Two More Weeks,” and “Sound the Alarm: Diabetes Alert Day.”

You can download the Raise Your Voice icon (in a variety of colors) from Kerri’s blog, and you can also purchase items featuring the logo here—profits go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International (JDRF).
