WHO WE ARE

40+ Years Fighting for Children's Rights

Since 1981, Aide et Action (AEA) South Asia has been on the frontlines of the battle against poverty through education. What started as a mission to help a few children has grown into a movement reaching 1.2 million lives across 4 countries.

We work in the hardest-to-reach communities—from rural villages in India to remote areas in Nepal, Bhutan, and Sri Lanka. Where others see impossibility, we see children full of potential waiting for their chance.

  • Registered Non-Profit Since 1988
  • Operations Across 4 South Asian Countries
  • 6 Offices with Chennai as HQ

Every child we help goes on to lift their entire family out of poverty. Education doesn’t just change one life—it transforms generations.
