A portion of the proceeds from Uke U benefits the local Ukes for Youth program. Read on for an inspiring story!
Every two years, more than 150 children living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) gather in Washington, D.C., to meet face-to-face with some of the top decision-makers in the U.S. government. This year BUGs member Anya Rozek, who has had T1D since age 5, was selected to participate.
Ukes for Youth sent along 2 ukuleles for Anya to give to deserving individuals. Meet Claire from Tennessee!
Claire is 7 years old and was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 13 months old. She wants a cure because "I don't want to listen to my pump beep anymore and I don't want to miss class anymore because school is really fun and I like to learn."
Thank you Anya and Ukes for Youth ~ Claire loves her ukulele! ... See MoreSee Less
