Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India

Rating: 5 stars  

The M.A. Math offers a vast diversity of programs: health care to the poor with a world-class hospital & auxialliary services, housing, orphanages, hospice, schools, disaster relief, pensions, and the list goes on. A unique factor of these projects is that many of the services are provided by volunteers - any funds raised go directly to support the intended recipients, not to support a top-heavy bureaucratic organization. In addition, because so much of the implementation is done by volunteers, the reach of a project is amplified immeasurably beyond the actual cost of the project. And most significantly, the leadership and guidance behind these projects is designed to inspire all of us to serve our fellow man. After 20 years of watching the growth of this extraordinary organization, my friends and I are now doing regular volunteer work on a local level to feed and clothe our own homeless community.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the inspiration to get involved myself on a local level.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

working with other like-minded people who are also inspired by Mata Amritanandamayi.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

all striving to serve selflessly.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

feed, clothe, provide healthcare and shelter tens of thousands of people. And educate them to become self-sufficient with a desire to serve others.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every six months
