Great Effort by AID to Help the Needy People of India

AID - Association for India's Development

- "Half the world - nearly three billion people - live on less than two dollars a day."
- "Nearly a billion people entered the 21st century unable to read a book or sign their names."
- "Approximately 790 million people in the developing world are still chronically undernourished, almost two-thirds of whom reside in Asia and the Pacific."
- "A few hundred millionaires now own as much wealth as the world's poorest 2.5 billion people." - (Statistics by Globalissues.org)

Most probably these few statistics helped them to set their life's goal. Everyone live for their own life. How many of us want to live because of other's life? There are few people who found the meaning of their life within others. In today's socioeconomic culture, sometime it is difficult to find people who can think something other than their own family, relatives, wishes and dreams. They become successful to set themselves as an example to our youths. On early 1990's, few students of early 20's reached US and Canada from India to complete their higher education. They could have spent a joyful and relaxed life here in US and Canada. It was easy to forget the old days of their childhood and mingle themselves into the wealth and lifestyle of western countries at that age of early 20's. But they are not meant for that. They tried to do something for their mother land, India. They formed a small group with few students from India across US and started activities which can help the people of India. They wanted to do something while staying at a distance from their mother land. In 1991 they formed an institution, namely 'Association for India's Development', in short AID to help people in India.
