I know that today's generation wants to be the integral part of India's development but get confused how to do that. We do get inspired by watching the movies like "Rang De Basanthi" , "Chakde India" & "Swades", well at least I get inspired for a moment but then that josh thing lasts for an hour or two. And then I'm out of that josh. So we need someone to guide us.Last night I was chatting with my friend Sravanthi. She is doing her MS in US, and she's president of Baton rouge (Louisiana) chapter, AID. So she told me about this NGO, Association for India's Development (AID), what all things they do to fund those in need and all. Well to be frank I didn't knew something like AID existed, even though it's more than a decade old organization. Not only me but I questioned couple of my friends do they knew about AID, on the sad note they too didn't knew that such an NGO existed. Anyways, I decided to join this organization and contribute whatever I can for the noble cause this NGO is committed to.
