Organized charitable effort
An aid program is an organized effort to provide assistance—typically money, goods, or services—to those in need.
Government aid programs address poverty, disaster relief, or development: The federal aid program provides food assistance to low-income families.
International aid programs channel resources to developing nations.
Nonprofit organizations run aid programs for specific causes like hunger or education.
