What is AOK?

AOK is a group of kind hearted people who gathered to bring a change in the life of needy people, not only by providing monetary help but by providing happiness and encouragement.

AOK is a bridge between 2 people who want to help each other.

• By giving donation and help

• By accepting the help and donation given by the donor.

3

Our Belief

•We believe that if someone is unhappy and we feel sad than god has not made any mistake by making us human being.

• It is our primary duty to help other people with whatever resources we have.

•Where there is a will there is a way.

•We all have got reason to smile, now lets be a reason for someone’s smile.

4

How AOK Started?• It was a casual visit to Mother Teresa Ashram which changed the thinking of a group of people who further formed Act of Kindness group to help the needy and bring positive change in their life.

•We feel, we are fortunate enough that god has graced our life with all the happiness and pleasure . Now it is our turn to give back to society.
