.:About Vishal

Vishal Bhagat was an active student at the University of Texas at Austin from 1998-2005. During this time he played roles in both service and social organizations. Vishal was afflicted with juvenile diabetes at a young age yet he never let his struggles with this draining condition keep him from leading an active life. Vishal understood that diabetes was a widespread illness that affects millions of children across the world. He envisioned an event that would combine his everyday struggle with one of his greatest loves, football, to help others. This led him to push for the establishment of the first ever “Sugar Free Bowl,” a charity flag football tournament that benefits the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. His goal was to raise awareness among the community and establish a means to provide funds to the continued research of Juvenile Diabetes.

To continue his legacy, plans for the Vishal Bhagat Foundation have been set in motion, and through the organization we will work to provide assistance to the thousands of people affected by this disease. Through a combination of various events such as the Sugar Free Bowl, Charity Golf Tournaments, and Walk-a-Thons, we are confident that we will reach our goal of fifty thousand dollars by years end. While the details of these events are still being established, pledges towards this fund are currently being accepted at the website listed below. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
