As the philanthropic and engagement arm of the U.S.-India Strategic Partnership Forum, USIFA mobilizes corporations, philanthropists, and civic partners to foster collaboration, expand opportunity, and strengthen the social and economic bridges between our two nations.
USIFA drives initiatives that deepen people-to-people ties between the United States and India, delivering measurable social impact through an approach focused on generating community benefit and exponential goodwill for every dollar invested. Our programs work with local partners in areas including skills development, market linkages, and meeting basic needs. Some of our work has included initiatives such as providing market linkages for traditional crafts, job training and placement for widows, expanded healthcare access in underserved communities, and access to technology in remote regions. What began as an emergency response during the COVID-19 crisis has evolved into a sustained effort to strengthen people-to-people ties and advance shared growth between the United States and India.
The U.S.-India Friendship Alliance's purpose is to strengthen the people, talent, and trust that bind the United States and India ensuring the partnership delivers shared opportunity, resilience, and prosperity for communities across both nations.
The U.S.-India Friendship Alliance's vision is a deep and enduring U.S.-India bond that expands opportunity, fosters understanding, and elevates lives across both countries through meaningful connections.
The U.S.-India Friendship Alliance advances shared prosperity between the United States and India by investing in people, talent pathways, cultural and civic linkages, and community resilience.
