Community Camp

Kanungo Institute of Diabetes Specialities (K.I.D.S) has identified more than sixty thousand diabetic people, suffering from its related complications like kidney failure, lower limb amputation, blindness, heart disease, strokes and nerve damages. And our experience has emphasized that for each known case these is an unknown. Most of the people are unaware they have diabetes or are at risk of developing the disease, and it’s taking as an epidemic form. Therefore, early detection is considered important in improving the management of the disease and its prevention.

K.I.D.S with the support of implementation partner Cuttack Diabetes Research Foundation (CDRF) has organised
• Organised 283 numbers of diabetes screening camps in twenty two districts of Odisha.
• Mobilised 2,083 volunteers across the state helping to bring consensus among the general public on diabetes prevention and care.
• To reach each and every family we had conducted the first state level drawing competition on the theme of live healthy with diabetes.
