The American India
Foundation is committed to catalyzing social and economic change in India and
building a lasting bridge between the United States and India through
high-impact interventions in education, livelihoods, public health, and
leadership development, with a particular emphasis on empowering girls and
women to achieve gender equity. Working closely with local communities, AIF partners
with NGOs to develop and test innovative solutions and with governments to
create and scale sustainable impact. Founded in 2001 at the initiative of
President Bill Clinton following a request from Prime Minister Vajpayee, AIF
has impacted the lives of 2.3 million of India’s poor and aims to reach 5
