YouWeCan is an Indian non-profit organization dedicated to fighting cancer. It was established in 2012[1] by Indian ex-cricketer Yuvraj Singh[2] with the help of his mother, Shabnam Singh. The association focuses on four key areas: cancer awareness, screening, treatment support, and survivor empowerment.[3] YouWeCan's operations are primarily in India.[1][4]
In 2012, Yuvraj Singh was diagnosed with cancer that was successfully treated in the United States.[5][6] This experience inspired him to launch YouWeCan.[5]
In September 2012, the YouWeCan app was initially launched by Microsoft for the Windows Phone. For each purchase of the app, Singh donates ₹565 (US$7.10) to the foundation.[7] In September 2012, Colors and YouWeCan announced a television show, Zindagi Abhi Baaki yHai, inspired by Yuvraj Singh's story of beating cancer.[8]
In April 2015, Yuvraj Singh announced his intention to invest INR 40-50 crores in tech startups and expanding YouWeCan by setting up YouWeCan Ventures.[9] Initial investments were made in Vyomo,[10] Moovo,[11] Healthians,[12] EduKart,[13] JetSetGo,[14] and most recently Cartisan.[15]
