A.C.T. - Aiding Children Together, Inc. is a grassroots charity that supports projects promoting health, education and safety of under-resourced families and children in Sri Lanka. The projects we support target children and youth living below the poverty line, increased following the economic collapse in 2022 to about $35 USD/month. ACT, an entirely volunteer-driven organization, links experienced local partners in Sri Lanka with committed donors in the US, resulting in projects that yield high impact through relatively modest investment. Our low overhead, expertise and commitment of our partners allow us to maximize impact of our charitable investments.  ACT is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization, registered as a not-for-profit in New York State.

ACT has built homes for families left homeless after the tsunami, launched a school for children of laborers on a tea estate, and has undertaken clean water and infrastructure projects. ACT supports a number of education programs serving children and youth, including two nursery schools, a vocational training center, tutoring and English classes. ACT ​supported the launch of a center for street-connected children. Each year ACT provides scholarships, resources to local schools and distributes necessary shoes, uniforms and school bags to hundreds of children.
