Page 3 of 6 2.2.4 Head Quarters: Since AID was founded in Maryland, the AID-Chapter in Maryland or the AID-Maryland Chapter, shall be called Head Quarters of AID, unless the Board of Directors decides to designate some other chapter as the Head Quarters to facilitate better functioning of AID. The Head Quarters shall have the responsibility of maintaining relevant project, treasury, membership and organizational information of AID and its chapters. However, the officers of the Head Quarters shall not use the title of officers of AID as these are defined in Sections 3.2 and 3.3. 2.2.4.1 Regional Head Quarters: With recommendations from the Head Quarters, a chapter of AID can be deemed a Regional Head Quarters by the Board of Directors provided such a designation helps manage the activities of AID more easily. Input from all the existing chapters in a region will be sought by the Board of Directors before they designate a Regional Head Quarters for that respective region. The Head Quarters can delegate some of its responsibilities to the Regional Head Quarters. 2.2.5 Student Organizations: Students in colleges and universities interested in volunteer experience and helping AID will be given the permission to use the name "Association for India's Development" and other copyrighted material in a limited way. Members of such student organizations can attend and help arrange the meetings of a nearby chapter of AID, as well as help AID in fund-raising, awareness and project review. Though these student organizations are financially independent of AID and register and operate according to the rules and regulations of the said colleges or universities, they must submit a copy of their current constituition or by-laws to the Executive Board of AID. Members of student organizations must direct any potential donors interested in contributing to AID, to the nearest AID-Chapter since a donation to the student organization is not a donation to AID.
