www.aidjhu.org Welcome to AID and let us begin with a short story. A man taking a walk on the beach comes across a young girl who is doing something strange.

She is taking the starfish one by one from the beach and putting them back into the sea. The starfish were washed onto the shore and the rocks by the waves, and were desperately trying to get back into the sea. He goes up to her and asks her “Why are you doing that? There are ten thousand starfish lying on the beach, how can you make a difference?” She looks at him, picks up yet another starfish a

nd places it into the sea; and responds to him “Well it made a difference to that fish!”. AID JHU was formed in February 2002 by a group of us at the Johns Hopkins University who want to contribute our resources (our time, our money, our selves) towards community service projects in India. We find and fund these projects. We raise money for these projects and keep track of their progress by visiting them. Our focus is (but not limited to) India, because that is where many of us have grown up, and that is the context we can work best in. We closely interact with other Chapters of AID such as College Park, as well as with organizations that share a similar passion to work for a social change.
