About Guerreros Azules
Guerreros Azules Was Established In 2016 By A Group Of Mothers Of Children With Type 1 Diabetes In Venezuela (T1d), Interested In Carrying Out Educational Activities And Improving The Supply Of Insulin And Diabetes Care.
Children With Type 1 Diabetes Depend On Educated Parents And Family Members To Excel In Their Diabetes Management. If Their Parents Or Relatives Do Not Have The Adequate Information Or Resources To Buy The Supplies, It Is The Youngest Ones Who Are Negatively Affected.
We Believe That Having Educated And Empowered Parents Will Help Advocate For Their Kid’s Health. Education And Emotional Support Are Key To A Healthy Live With Diabetes Type 1. If The Family Group Is Educated, Diabetes Becomes More Bearable And Easier To Handle.

Diabetes is not a tragedy,
it is a learning tool
Solidarity
In times of crisis, solidarity is the best vaccine to fight against injustice and global inequalities. We recognize that what affects others also affects us. We stand up for what we think is right.
Integrity
"Integrity is our defining quality and of our work. We strive to always do the right thing, to act truthfully: it is the constant choice to instill in every action honesty, fairness and respect for all those whose lives we touch on a daily basis." We do the right thing even when no one is looking at us.
Passion
We work urgently to solve the problems
Social responsability
Given our responsibility to our community, behaving ethically is a critical - and elementary - part of our success. We do the right thing because there is no other alternative.
Generosity
Generosity is more than a part of our mission - it is ingrained in the way we work. Each of us is generous with others, with their time, with their knowledge. It is the heart of who we are as an organization
Responsibility
We behave ethically, we act openly and with integrity in everything we do, taking responsibility for our actions.
