Aidmatrix Opens Office in India

Aidmatrix opened our office in New Dehli, India. This is just another
step to expand our services globally. Aidmatrix is doing an increasing
amount of work in the Asian market. Our goal is to create as much
local collaboration as possible, connecting materials and volunteers
with humanitarian needs within a community. With a well-documented
level of need in India, combined with numerous humanitarian
organizations and a growing market of material, the Aidmatrix
Foundation has added Aidmatrix India.

This eight-person office, headed by Kuldip Nar, is located in New
Delhi with an auxiliary operation in the State of Manipur. Aidmatrix
India is already working with several other organizations, especially
on disaster relief. They are running a conference on
"Operationalising Public-Private Partnerships for Disaster Management"
in April.
