During the Memorial Day weekend, Sai volunteers from the SSSIO-USA Northeast Region began constructing 12 additional raised garden beds in the community garden at the Sai Unity Center in Lowell, MA. This initiative, started in 2023, aims to provide fresh produce for local families and college students. The project has been a collaborative success that fosters community spirit and sustainable living, and addresses food insecurity within the community.

On July 20, 2024, SSSIO members in Northern California conducted a successful blood drive in collaboration with Standford Blood Center. To their delight, forty-five volunteers generously stepped forward to donate 28 units of blood, with the potential of saving about 84 lives! SSSIO members look forward to organizing many such successful blood drives in the Region.

The SSE Student Council in the North Central region of SSSIO-USA promoted gardening as a wellness activity through distributing money plant cuttings to Sai Center members. As a result, members of the Sai community of all ages experienced the joy of nurturing life, a deeper connection with nature and an improved home environment, including cleaner air and reduced stress.

Since 2016, the Mid-Central Region of SSSIO-USA has been a dedicated partner to the World Bird Sanctuary in various ways. Through their unwavering commitment, SSSIO members have become an integral part of the sanctuary community, developing both a deep appreciation for the sanctuary's vital mission, and a holistic approach to serving the avian population with compassion and care.

Every month, Sai volunteers, including SSE children, from the Sri Sathya Sai Center Northeast Atlanta, GA, visit the Daydream Animal Sanctuary where they joyfully care for rescued animals, lovingly tend to a fruit orchard, enthusiastically carry out various farm chores, and learn the importance of being stewards of the earth.

Sai volunteers from Nashville, TN, creatively reused old materials to sew about 450 tote bags which were then donated to a local shelter, putting into practice principles of sustainability – reduce, reuse, recycle and redesign.
