Older People
With no pensions and no savings for older Anglo-Indians struggle to survive in a culture of prejuidice and poverty, AIC brings hope through small allowances for those who have nothing.
Education
Life in Chennai for young Anglo-Indians like Yvonne, is tough and help with education is one way that AIC can give them valuable opportunities as they grow up when hopefully they will get a job. To read Yvonne’s story click here.
There are also many talented Anglo Indian students who simply cannot afford to go to college or university in India. AIC has supported and continues to support young people through further education.
Improving Health
People of all ages can suffer from illness and disabilities and, with no national health or other support, many Anglo-Indians go without essential medical treatments and help.
AIC provides small allowances for people of all ages living with disabilities and also helps with the costs of treatments and operations.
Sponsoring Children
Anglo Indians speak english but there are no free english speaking schools in Chennai.
Anglo Indian Concern last year helped 66 children to attend school who otherwise would not have been able to afford to go.
