ABOUT AIF: Founded at the initiative of President Clinton in 2001, AIF is the leading Indian
diaspora foundation focused on helping those in India and is acknowledged as a trusted bridge
for Americans to channel their philanthropy towards India. Since our inception we have raised
over $70 million to invest in education, livelihoods and public health programs and have reached
more than 1.5 million marginalized Indians. We have sent 237 Clinton Fellows to serve for ten
months at 115 high-quality Indian NGOs, introduced technology to improve the education of
over 750,000 students through the Digital Equalizer program, and trained over 60,000 individuals
to work in the evolving job market.
AIF has eight active volunteer led chapters in cities across the U.S. in addition to our main offices
in New York City and the Bay Area in the U.S. and New Delhi in India. President Clinton serves
as Honorary Chair and Nobel Laureate Professor Dr. Amartya Sen chairs the Advisory Council.
