Communications Projects at Udayan

Udayan’s  leadership team, including Governing Body and management, have been busy on the communications front over the last 12 months.  A number of projects have been taken up to better communicate the work of Udayan, along with highlight the need among children of leprosy affected families.  

o       Case for Support

Udayan has developed its very own Case for Support – a crucial document for donors which walks them through every aspect of why Udayan exists, the problems we are addressing and our approach to helping children rise above leprosy. 

A case for support is one of the most important documents a non profit will create.  It explains what the NGO does, why it’s important and, most importantly, why people should support it.

o      Stigma – the Hidden Scars of Leprosy

Udayan Chair, Emily R Menon, has captured the incredible stories and images of 20 leprosy affected people who live in the Leprosy Colonies of West Bengal, in the form of a Coffee Table Book.  ‘Stigma – The Hidden Scars of Leprosy’ will be harnessed as an awareness and fundraising tool, with 50 copies being printed and sent to key donors, supporters and prospects in the coming month.

o      Udayan Video

    Thanks to support from SBI Life Insurance, a short video has been made which outlines why Udayan exists. Scripted by Emily R Menon, and shot by Udayan’s Swapan Naiya, the film was created on a shoestring budget and will be used as a key tool in fundraising for Udayan.

      The first draft cut of the film is HERE
