My Nonprofit Reviews

The most remarkable thing about this organization is the work,selfless example and innovation of the leader, Amma. She sleeps only a couple hours a night (if that much) and the rest of her time is dedicated to serving others through many different humanitarian projects (homes for the poor, disaster relief,schools, hospitals, widow's pensions, etc.). I was at the ashram during the Tsunami. I was amazed at how the ashram fed the villagers three meals a day for several months, provided clothing, rebuilt houses and boats, provided job training for men and women, and much more. And the ashram was able to provide so much more than the Indian government was capable of delivering. In the time it took the government to build one temporary building, the ashram was able to build ten.
