1. Introduction 
USAID moto is international development and humanitarian efforts to save lives, reduce poverty, strengthen democratic governance and help people progress beyond assistance[www.usaid.gov/who-we-are/mission-vission-values]. The  United States Agency for International Development was established in 1961 by President John.F.Kennedy. 
USAID’s main objective  is lend out a hand of support to the developing and unde-developed countries to become self-reliant and capable of leading their own development journeys. It assures this  by reducing conflict, preventing the spread of pandemic disease, and counteracting the drivers of violence, instability, transnational crime and other security threats. USAID  promotes American prosperity through investments that expand markets for U.S. exports; create a level playing field for U.S. businesses; and support more stable, resilient, and democratic societies.
The proposal elaborates on the context of the Mission and the Vision of the USAID. This proposal claims to be the next mission of the USAID that would work as an alleviation of hunger from the heart of India. India is prospering every day but the hunger in the country is a major issue and food is a crisis despite that the Agricultural sector covers almost 70% of the country. Despite  some  phenomenal industrial and economic growth and  it is unable to provide access to food to a large number of people, especially women and children [www.usaid.gov/who-we-are/mission-vission-values].
