Why are we unique?
Here at NADI, we try to accomplish two things at once whenever possible. That is how our organization runs. Many people donate money to charities, but very few people actually become involved in the humanitarian experience or know what exactly happened with their money. This is why we do not accept blind donations. We maintain full transparency of donations, meaning you will get emails with where exactly the money was used. If you look under business ventures, you can see the many ways we generate income. All this revenue is used to fund the overhead costs associated with running our workshops and projects. NADI members are volunteers so we do not incur any administrative cost. This allows us to not only provide a service to the receiver, but also provide services to the donors. For example, Ed2Ed Tutoring involves generating revenue by tutoring students. Rather than asking for donations, we help a student learn by tutoring them and then use that money to help others with our healthcare projects.
We feel this is the most sustainable way of maintaining this organization for the long-run. It is how an ideal, utopian society may work. Because creating a utopia is society's ultimate goal, having business ventures that are mutually beneficial to donor and receiver is important and makes everyone happy.
- Comprehensive blood pressure & blood glucose check-ups are done (including different body positions, post-meal, post-exercise etc.)
- We allow participants to temporarily LIVE a preventative lifestyle rather than solely learn about a preventative lifestyle
- We educate the general public about the scientific theory of diabetes & hypertension, including the science behind specific medications
- We utilize the newest research to inform people about the newest findings in diabetes & hypertension
- We conduct public health research using data from workshops and medical tables (provided participants' consent) to help further the field
- We realize that normal does not necessarily equal healthy, so we try to understand and pass on our knowledge of how normal vs. abnormal cutoffs are made (ex. why is 120/80 the normal blood pressure? What determines when a person become hypertensive?).
- We follow the principle of "relative truth", meaning that all the knowledge we obtain through science or other means are partial truths, correct from a particular perspective. That is why we try to understand multiple perspectives (ex. Ayurvedic or acupuncture theory in addition to allopathic theory).
