How to support

We do not ask for your money — only your time and your love.

In short

Does the Organisation accept donations?

No. The Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation does not solicit funds in any form, directly or indirectly, and never makes a public appeal. The day-to-day costs of its units are met voluntarily by the members themselves. That is why this website has no “Donate” button and no bank details.

“Solicitation of funds, directly or indirectly, in any manner is strictly prohibited. The expenses of the day-to-day activities of the units of the Organisation are met by voluntary contribution by the members themselves. Under no circumstances a public appeal for solicitation of funds is resorted to for undertaking any activity of the organisation.”

“The Sathya Sai Organisation and its units must not collect money or material from those outside the membership. Fund collection is as much opposed to this movement as fire is to water. If you yield on this point, spiritual advance will perish. Let only members contribute; do not ask all and sundry, or anyone who is not a member of the Samithi (unit).”
— Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, Divine Discourse, Dharwar, 14 May 1971 · Source: ssssoindia.org — Core Principles

The way to support

Give time, do seva

Everything the Organisation does — Narayan Seva, medical camps, village seva, Bal Vikas — runs on the time and effort of members and volunteers. If you would like to support it, the best way is to lend a hand in seva yourself.

Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust

The Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust is a separate body. Any contribution to the Trust is made only through the Trust's own official channels — never through this website or the state Organisation. For information, see the Trust's official website: srisathyasai.org ↗

If anyone asks you for money in the name of this Organisation, it is against its principles. Please inform your nearest Samithi.
