Mata Amritanandamayi Math (M.A. Math)

Mata Amritanandamayi, lovingly known as Amma, is revered throughout the world as an outstanding humanitarian and spiritual leader. M.A. Math, headquartered in Kerala, India, oversees a vast network of charitable activities inspired by Amma's life and example of selfless service. These activities include programs in education, environment, healthcare, indigenous rights, gender equality, poverty eradication, and relief work, all dedicated to creating a more just, equitable and sustainable society. A new relief program is focused on debt-ridden farm families in India who commit suicide in large numbers. Underlying all of these projects is the understanding that a deep relationship exists between all peoples, nations and ecosystems
