Mission: The AIMS Project, also known as Healthcare Charities, Inc., was established in 1995 for the purpose of supporting international health and community services. The Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Center, AIMS, is the recipient of such support. AIMS is one of Southeast Asia's premier hospitals. Shipments include everything from bandages, beds and gurneys to ambulances, linear accelerators, MRIs, PET CT, gamma cameras, and cath labs. To date, volunteers have packed over 146 ocean containers and 116 air freight shipments of new and donated medical equipment and supplies. Many of the volunteers have been with the project since its inception in 1996, as a way of supporting Amma's charities and serving those in need. (Less)

The AIMS Project is a 501(c)(3) organization, with an IRS ruling year of 1996, and donations are tax-deductible.
