Udaan's vision is to bring love and hope to every child with diabetes.
Diabetes is not just a disease. For many families, Type 1 diabetes means choosing between food and a child's life every day.
Udaan started in early 2000 by adopting a single child who couldn't afford the insulin she needed to stay alive. The family has grown since then and over the last 20+ years, we found that a diagnosis of Type 1 could also mean being pulled out of school, and an end of all hope. We went from village to village, finding children from low resource settings with Type 1 diabetes and became a family of over 1000 families.
Today, every Udaan kid is a dreamer, aware that she can do anything she wants.
