Founded in 1996 by a team of IIT and BITS alumni, Eureka Child Foundation empowers local communities through projects in the fields of education, health, and livelihood. | The objective of this fund is to support projects in appropriate rural technology and alternate energy that make a positive difference in the life and lifestyle of the poor in India. | |
| Anti Corruption Fund | Solar Pump Project Fund | |
| Helps fight corruption. For example, this fund facilitates proper implementation of India’s Right to Information Act, that increases transparency in governance and exposes corruption in government-run Rural Employment Guarantee programs. | Supports “Agariyas” (Salt farmers) in Little Rann of Kutch to replace highly polluting inefficient diesel pumps with ecofriendly Solar energy pumps to bring down the cost of salt production in a sustainable manner. The use of solar pumps will help a salt farmer save an average of $1200/yr for 10-12 years. | |
| Peace and Communal Harmony Fund | Jeevansathi Fund | |
| The objective of this fund is to support organizing awareness events and activities not only at chapter level but also across chapters by collaborating with partners in USA and India. The funds may also be used for supporting projects in India that promote peace and communal harmony. | Jeevansathis are highly motivated individuals who volunteered for AID in the U.S., and were inspired to give up their professional careers so that they can focus their full energies guiding the work of AID and partner organizations. They initiate projects and collaborations, and strengthen human rights campaigns. | |
| Development Coordinator Fund | AID Corpus Fund | |
| Development Coordinators maintain quality connections with AID partners and volunteers, raise community awareness about sustainable, equitable and just development, take part in core organizational and compliance work and strengthen the support base of AID. | The interest of the fund will be used to support core activities of AID while the principal accrues. This fund that builds slowly, provides longterm stability to the organization. |
