The Word In Your Hand contest for the month of September 2008 is now over. You can see who the winners were each week below:
Week 1 September 7, 2008 at 11:59 p.m. PT - SEE THE WINNERS
Week 2 September 14, 2008 at 11:59 p.m. PT - SEE THE WINNERS
Week 3 September 21, 2008 at 11:59 p.m. PT - SEE THE WINNERS
Week 4 September 30, 2008 at 11:59 p.m. PT - SEE THE WINNERS

Each week, the four (4) best submissions each won one (1) OneTouch® UltraMini™ meter and two (2) boxes of one hundred (100) count test strips. The prizes were by LifeScan, Inc. for this contest but LifeScan, Inc. was not directly involved with the selection of winners or administration of the contest.

Some of the winners chose to donate their prize so that others who cannot afford test strips could benefit from it. Donated prizes were mailed to iPump.org, a non-profit that provides critical, temporary financial assistance and free supplies to diabetics in need of all ages throughout the United States.

You are welcome to submit your photo through this page. However, we also encourage you to visit DiabetesHandPrint.com, a new site developed by OneTouch, inspired by Word In Your Hand.

For every word submitted through DiabetesHandPrint.com, OneTouch will donate $5 up to a maximum of $250,000 for the Diabetes Education and Camping Association (DECA) to support children’s diabetes camps and to Taking Control of Your Diabetes (TCOYD) to support adult diabetes conferences.
