What we do

We are the only charity dedicated to supporting children and youth with diabetes in Hong Kong. YDA was set up in 2001, with the vision that no child is held back because of diabetes. We want to reach every child, adolescent and family affected by diabetes to provide support and information. We believe that with good management and support a child with diabetes can go on to live a full and healthy life. We understand the impact that diabetes can have on the lives of those living and affect by this condition, several of our own council and staff members are either living with or has a child/family member with diabetes. We support children with diabetes and their families through 4 core service areas: - Counselling - Care Support - Financial and Medical Assistance - Education and Community
