Action Center for Transformation (ACT) is a non-government, non-profit registered organization. The organization is located in Gurgaon. ACT was conceptualized by social development professionals in the year 2010. The thought behind building an institution was to deliver well-thought-of and strategized action for the so-called underprivileged and the deprived section. The idea, or the dream behind forming the institution was to bring a positive change by innovative ideas and by taking a well thought out initiatives by the community.
ACT began to function in September 2010 by going through a continuous brainstorming process, visits to the rural communities, continuous dialogue with our village friends, and researching the development issues. This initiative is taken to act together with lots of creativity and newness, fight the challenges and prepare leaders out of the community. There is no assured support for ACT, but the ambition, conviction, and passion to bring a positive change in the existing scenario is tremendous.
