On July 3, 2025, members of the Sri Sathya Sai Center of Northeast Atlanta, GA, volunteered at Doghead Farm to harvest organic produce, mulch beds and remove weeds, ensuring the produce reached food banks serving food-insecure communities across Georgia. Despite strenuous work, volunteers found the experience rewarding and plan to continue their support for local farms and food access.

Every third Saturday, the Sri Sathya Sai Center of Cherry Hill, NJ, serve hot, nutritious meals to 50-75 homeless individuals at Mount Holly Shelter in New Jersey. From 9 am to 2 pm, the shelter is filled with warmth and laughter as 15 dedicated volunteers find their own hearts enriched by this monthly compassionate act of service.

Seventeen members of the Sri Sathya Sai Group of Orlando, FL, joined numerous other volunteers at the MLK Day of Service Million Meal Pack. They scooped and bagged dehydrated food, contributing to more than a million healthy meals that were distributed throughout Central Florida. This event highlights how seemingly small acts of kindness, done in unity, can achieve remarkable feats.

On April 27, 2025, the Sri Sathya Sai Center of Pittsburgh, PA, hosted a free Health and Wellness Fair at the Second Avenue Commons Shelter. This initiative, in collaboration with local hospitals and the county department of human services, provided vital medical, dental, and mental health services to over 60 homeless individuals. Driven by compassion and the increasing need for healthcare among the homeless, the event showcased selfless service with plans for future outreach.

About 30 Sai volunteers, including SSE students, celebrated Earth Day by planting sacred and fruit trees at the Sri Sathya Sai Baba Abode of Supreme Peace in Tracy, CA. Building and consecrating a Tulasi shrine awakened a sense of sacredness to the day's activities. Finally, savoring the sweet, harvested sugar juice at day's end reminded them of the profound impact of nurturing plants with love and spirituality.

When disaster strikes, how do you offer comfort from afar? Following the devastating Los Angeles wildfires in January 2025, the Ladies' Group of the Sri Sathya Sai Center of Detroit Metro, MI, found a heartfelt way to help by creating beautifully hand-painted bags filled with essential hygiene items which brought a much-needed sense of dignity and hope to women survivors. Their simple act of compassion showed how service can transcend distance and deliver a touching message of love and solidarity.
