Shri Shiridi Sainath Seva Ashram is a charitable trust established in the year 2008to serve the humanity with special emphasis on the poor and under-privileged sections of the society without any discrimination to caste, creed and sex.

Funtioning from its registered office at Badua (in district Ganjam in Odisha state), also known as Sai Shakti Dham, the trust was created with the motto of serving the humanityfor their all-round development in social, economic and spiritual spheres as the founders believed in the principle ‘Manav Seva—Madhav Seva’, i.e. ‘service to mankind is service to god’, it being the way shown by Sri Shiridi Sai years ago.

Since it is a non-profit charitable organisation, the trust runs its activities with the help of the donations of its revered donors.

 

The mission of the trust is to serve the humanity with the support extended to the poor and underprivileged classes of the society through primary and vocational education, health care, food-supply, clothing, sheltering the old and other areas of activity as to improve the socio-economic-spiritual status of the community.

Major Activities, 2015-16

Education

• Pre-school Education:

The trust imparted pre-school education to dalit and tribal children in remote villages through its volunteers. The importance of intervention arises from the fact that in these areas proper functioning of Anganwadies do not take place due to laxity of officials.  During the reporting period, 2014-15 pre-education was imparted to children at 22 centres.

• Coaching Facilities for School Children:

We provide free coaching facilities to dalit and tribal students in villages. The idea is to check drop out of children from primary school. Being oppressed by poverty, dalit and tribal families fail to provide tutorial facilities to their children. So it results in a large number of school drop outs. In order to ward off the problem the trust imparted free coaching to these children in 30 villages of Polosara and Buguda blocks of Ganjam district during the reporting period. Total 500 students were benefitted due to this activity during the period, 201 5 -16.

• Distribution of Study Materials

Study materials in the form of books, note-copies pen/pencil, slates and crayons etc were distributed to total 499 needy primary school students during the reporting year.

The Seva Ashram provides health care services through mobile free of cost. In the reporting year, the trust offered mobile health care services to 10,000 patients.

During the reporting period, 2015-16, the trust facilitated formation of total 60 numbers of children’s clubsin 60 villages of Polosara and Buguda blocks of Ganjam district. Through these clubs the afflicted children put their grievances at the VEC and VDC and the line departments of the government concerned with regard to the problems they face at school and other spheres of life.

The trust provides food free to 1000 hungry souls at the premises of Sai Dham twice in a month—on each alternative Thursday.

In the Seva Ashram distributed clothes and blankets twice during the reporting period to 900 beneficiaries in Polosara and Buguda block which included the distressed people such as the widows, beggers, lepers, and poor tribal men and women, as well as social workers, teachers and ardent Sai devotees.
