Sri Sathya Sai International Organization - USA

Spearheaded by the Sai Spiritual Education children of the SSSIO-USA, North Central Region, the Sai 100 Blessed Blankets project unites SSSIO (Sri Sathya Sai International Organization) members of all ages in the Region to craft comforting fleece blankets for children in pediatric healthcare facilities. These blankets, made with love and compassion, offer both physical and emotional warmth to distressed young patients. Inspired by Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Centennial Celebrations the project has already surpassed its initial goal of 100 blankets with His Grace.

In October 2024, SSSIO (Sri Sathya Sai International Organization) volunteers offered free medical services to over 100 diverse residents, including Afghan immigrants in St. Louis, MO. The services included flu shots, blood tests, various health screenings, and preventive education. Guests also participated in yoga and mindfulness sessions, received complimentary nutritious lunch, and children were given backpacks. Volunteers expressed deep satisfaction in serving the guests.

To celebrate Sathya Sai Baba’s 99th Year of Advent in November 2024, SSSIO (Sri Sathya Sai International Organization) members from SE Denver and Boulder, CO, hosted a trifecta of community events. The celebration began with an energetic session of group singing and sharing of personal Sai experiences. The following day, a collaborative community health fair offered free screenings. The festivities culminated in Birthday celebrations featuring an inspiring universal message from guest speaker Dr. Joe Phaneuf, bringing together the Sai and church communities.

Marking over four decades of dedicated collaboration, the Sri Sathya Sai Center of South Houston, TX, held a special celebration on December 14, 2024, to honor its community partners. The SSSIO (Sri Sathya Sai International Organization) members, along with their partners, have jointly provided invaluable service to the Houston community, including feeding the hungry, offering medical care, and implementing environmental initiatives. The event featured reflections from partner organizations, expressions of gratitude and commitment to future collaborations, and uplifting musical performances by Sai Spiritual Education students.
