Providing the next generation with education on diabetes prevention and cardiovascular health
Our Mission
At Arogya For Kids, we strive to educate India’s youth particularly those in underserved communities of Karnataka, with knowledge and habits necessary to prevent diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Arogya for Kids is dedicated to providing education which is culturally relevant to India. We strive to build a healthier future for the children of Karnataka, so they grow up with the awareness of healthy habits necessary to prevent diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This includes healthy eating habits and physical exercise. Eventually, the hope is to reach communities beyond Karnataka as we grow our organization to serve other Indian demographics.
Cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of death in India and around the world
Allowing the future great minds of the world to be equipped with knowledge of cardiovascular system health, will not only make for a healthier world, but also a much happier one.
ಉಳ್ಳವರು ಶಿವಾಲಯ ಮಾಡುವರು
ನಾನೇನ ಮಾಡಲಿ ಬಡವನಯ್ಯ,
ಎನ್ನ ಕಾಲೇ ಕಂಬ
ದೇಹವೇ ದೇಗುಲ ಶಿರವೇ ಹೊನ್ನ ಕಳಶವಯ್ಯ,
ಕೂಡಲಸಂಗಮದೇವ ಕೇಳಯ್ಯ
ಸ್ಥಾವರಕ್ಕಳಿವುಂಟು ಜನ್ಗಮಕಲಿವಿಲ್ಲ
— Guru Basaveshwara
ullavaru shivalaya maaduvaru
naanena maadali badavanayya,
enna kaale kamba
dehave degula shirave honna kalashavayya
Koodala Sangama Deva
kelayya sthavarakkalivuntu jangamakalivilla
