Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been going to MAM since 2001. I work as a volunteer in greetin and guiding people coming to Amma's program., helping in the kitchen and serving food. At these programs I have seen Mata Amritanandamayi hugging,consoling and guiding people expecting nothing in return for at least 15 hours a day, some days even more. The funds raised at these programs mostly by the sale of products and food are used for many charities and humanitarin work. Some of them are: Through Embracing the world program 3000 womens self help co-peratives are established. 30000 families are benefitted. Program to identify and sponsor 100000 talented chldren from impoverished agricultural communities. Initiating a program for adult education and vocational training. Provide start up capital for 100000 women under poverty level. School specifically vor hearing-impaired in Trissur, Kerala. In 2008 Embracing the world won UNESCO/NLM National award. Program for Schedule Tribes and Indigenous people. Well known Tsunami relief project. $22 Million US and $1 million US for Katrina Fund. 40000 homes are constructed for homeless. Care homes for more than 600 children in Kerala and Nairobi. 2 million people are fed annually throught India. 1300 bed hospital in Kerala. Provided US$50 million worth of free medecine. 1.2 million received free health care.
