3 out of 5 afflicted men and women
in India do not know they have diabetes, an ignorance
itself contributing indirectly to proliferation of
this affliction.
We have, therefore, set ourselves these tasks:
One, Create a sense of cooperation, fellow-feeling and
deep fraternity among the juvenile diabetics.
Two, provide educational and counseling services to
the juvenile diabetics.
Three, Uphold the social rights of the juvenile
diabetics.
Four, Remove prevailing conceptions, prejudices, and
discriminations against the diabetics.
Five, Help juvenile diabetics attain their potential
by providing them with insulin, education, and
training to cope with their affliction.
What we do
Organise Awareness Camp several times a year, with
diabetes detection and counseling facilities, at
varied places, on varied occasions, in villages,
schools, colleges, at book fair social gathering city
places.
Run a Free Diabetes Clinic at Calcutta Heart Clinic &
Hospital in Salt Lake, Kolkata, West Bengal, where
blood sugar levels are checked, counseling provided on
diet and nutrition, and guidance is offered.
Distribute free insulin vials, syringes, other
medicines to needy juvenile diabetics. Collect
donations from individuals, professional bodies,
voluntary associations and the like in order to
sustain our efforts and carry forward.

juvenile diabetics.

facilities.
