Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India

Rating: 5 stars  

Matha Amritanandamayi Math is a charitable organization headed by the spiritual saint Matha Amritanandamayi. Although it is headquartered in the southern state of Kerala in India, every nook and corner of the world is touched by its humanitarian activities. It has made stellar contributions to ameliorate various types of suffering in the world. Specific examples include earthquake disaster in Gujarath, India and Tsunami disaster. It is worth noting that the organizations pledge of support to Tsunami victims far exceeded the initial contribution pledged by US federal government! It is an organization with a dedicated volunteer force enabling it to be one with an extremely low over-head cost. Therefore, most of the contributions end up directly at the place or hands where help is needed the most. That is one of the main motivating factors to make donations to this organization. Importantly, it dispenses help to anyone in dire need irrespective of their religion, caste or creed. Its leader and director Her Holiness Matha Amrithanandamayi is the embodiment of love, humility, and wisdom. The loving hug of this "hugging mother" has touched and soothed millions of lives all over the world.

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

Transparency, dedication to service, service to people irrespective of religion, cate, or color. Unassuming, sincere, loving nature of its director/CEO, Her Holiness Matha Amrithanandamayi is most impressive and assuring.

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

Superb.
