About AID
The Why
BECAUSE WE CAN help ensure that every child has the opportunity for a bright future and no one sleeps hungry, that farmers can earn a dignified livelihood, that everyone has an opportunity to earn a fair living wage without discriminatory barriers, and that development is equitable and sustainable. The What
EVERYTHING WE CAN, because the problems are interconnected, and a holis

tic approach with projects and campaigns in agriculture, health, education, community empowerment, relief and rehabilitation is essential to address their root causes. An underlying reason for poor health and malnourishment may be the corruption in access to a ration card or anganwadi services. The How
THE BEST WAY WE CAN, by working with some of the best social workers and groups in India. We have long term partnerships with NGOs that have taken many ideas from inception to large scale, impactful projects. Some AIDers have gone back to India to actively work at the grassroots, and AID benefits from their experiences and insights. AID volunteers have visited all the projects, deepening our connections and our understanding.

We are grateful to all our supporters for making Milan a successful event for the 9th year! Through Milan, we are able to share the impact of the work and challenges faced by our NGO partners and strengthen our relationship with sustained supporters of AID in the DC Metro area. We thank you for choosing to spend September 28th with AID and hope you enjoyed connecting with volunteers and like-minded donors and the inspiring talk by Jayaram Venkatesan.

Today is International Rivers Day.
Healthy rivers are critical for all life on our planet. Somnath Mukherji (AID Development Coordinator) talking about the importance of balanced ecosystems, notes: "In villages of Jharkhand in central India, when forests disappeared, rivers disappeared along with them."

We'd like to shine a spotlight on two environmental projects that we support: Matu Jan Sangathan (Uttarakhand) and Center for Research and Advocacy Manipur (Manipur). Both these organizations strive to understand, address and mitigate the tremendous human and ecological impact of large dams in India.
