AID is a non-profit charitable, volunteer organization that supports a wide variety of social and development projects addressing problems such as literacy, healthcare, rural credit, vocational training, and children's welfare. AID was started in 1991 in Maryland by a group of students. AID now has about 35 chapters across the USA, over 2000 members and about 300 active volunteers. AID is funding over 85 projects in Indian states, the primary source of funding being the Indian community in the US. AID believes that the poverty, illiteracy, unemployment and health problems are all interconnected and an effective solution is one that tackles them all. See the cur
