Description
Association for India's Development (AID) is a non-profit, voluntary organization whose objective is to ad-dress grassroots issues that are impeding the progress of India. The problems of poverty, illiteracy, unemployment, health, social inequalities and corruption reinforce one another. We believe that the solutions to these problems must be interconnected, just like the problems themselves. AID hopes to solve these problems by sup-porting developmental projects in promoting literacy, health care, rural credit, vocational training, women's empowerment and child welfare.
