WHO WE ARE
Angel Xpress (AXF) is a Mumbai-based non-profit organisation. As a volunteer-led, community-based organisation, we provide a platform to bridge the socio-economic divide in our cities. We enable educated, affluent citizens to empower students from low-income families within their neighbourhoods, with education, skilling and development.
