Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India

Rating: 5 stars  

I have donated time volunteering and money to the multitudinous humanitarian efforts of Mata Amritanandamayi Math. I have seen Amma console and comfort all those who come to her at her public programs. I have watched volunteers come together to serve food, assist the infirm, and leverage resources to be of assistance and respond to their individual needs. The efforts of MA Math are unparalleled, from feeding and clothing the hungry, to consoling inmates, to comforting widows, to providing pensions for the poor, to preventing farmer suicide, to running orphanges, to building homes for those affected by natural disasters, to caring for the sick, to educating children...the list goes on. The scope of the work is awe-inspiring. I will continue to volunteer my time and donate money to M.A. Math to ensure that these programs continue to meet the myriad needs of humanity.

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

the way we serve the thousands of people who come to see Amma each year in NYC. Amma receives all regardless of caste, creed, race, religion, sexual orientation, ability... The results are astonishing. Amma is recognized as a humanitarian world leader.

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

the way I am made to feel a part of something important. I am contributing to the good in the world. I am learning how to be more compassionate and loving by watching the example Amma has set.

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

committed and gracious.

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

continue to meet the needs of those who need support the most (the poor, the hungry, the needy, the uneducated...) and help to make this world a better more equitable place for all.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?
