AMP National Awards for Social Excellence - 2022
An AMP initiative to honour NGOs & Changemakers!

Association of Muslim Professionals (AMP) has been working for almost a decade and a half in the twin areas of Education and Employment Assistance. From a humble beginning in 2007, Alhamdulillah, AMP has grown exponentially and is present today in more than 100 Cities of India and as many as 16 Countries globally.

In the year 2020 amidst the Covid-19 pandemic & lockdown, AMP launched NGO Connect initiative, which aims to harness the power of Individual NGOs into a Collaborative Movement of Change. The idea is to develop a network or alliance of NGOs working for various issues of Community & Nation Building and also to facilitate inter-organization co-operation and co-ordination for implementation of Welfare Projects & Activities across the Country.

Alhamdulillah, in the past couple of years more than 2500 NGOs have connected with us and collaborated on various AMP projects like National Talent Search(NTS) Exam, #O2ForAll (Oxygen Cylinders campaign) and #FeedthePoor Campaigns during #Covid pandemic and more recently record-breaking Mega Job Drives in 100+ cities across the Country. There have been collaborations on many non-AMP projects too.

Looking at the commendable work of several NGO’s , Individuals & Changemakers  spread across the Country, AMP  instituted AMP National Awards for Social Excellence in 2021, for appreciating their outstanding contribution to Nation Building.

These awards are given at the National and State Level in the following 4 categories;

1. Education
