Volunteers of AID are mainly involved in the following activities:

Projects
Volunteer chapters of AID provide financial support and expertise to NGOs based in India that are aligned with our mission and vision. Volunteers actively solicit project proposals from these NGOs, thoroughly evaluate the projects and finally help raise funds for these NGOs to implement them. Proposals that are approved by a majority vote are assigned to a team led by a Project Coordinator. It is the responsibility of the Project Coordinator and his team to ensure successful implementation of the project as well as evaluate and monitor the progress of the projects funded by AID. Volunteers return to India periodically to raise awareness about the work done by AID and to evaluate programs that we support.

Fund-raising events
Volunteers also actively take part in organizing several fund-raising events throughout the year. Events include inviting music bands and concerts to play for AID, hosting fund-raising dinners, hosting local sports tournaments and other similar activities.

In addition, for the effective functioning of the chapter, there are several roles which the volunteers take up. Chapter president, secretary, treasurer, overall project coordinator, webmaster and fund-raising coordinator are some of the roles.
