Mata Amritanandamayi Math actively involved in providing relief to the families, who were affected in the rains that caused flooding in Kerala and helped people in distress across the state. Mata Amritanandamayi has announced Rs. 10 crore for the Chief Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund (CMDRF). Apart from the Mata Amritanandamayi Math’s monetary donation, physicians and specialists from the Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences & Research Center (Amrita Hospital) in Kochi as well as the Amrita Kripa Charitable Hospitals in Kollam and Kalpetta have been sent to flood-ravaged areas. AYUDH (Amrita Yuva Dharma Dhara) chapter at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri campus has started 24X7 Compassionate Kerala Call Centre for Kerala Flood Relief and rescue operations. Several batches of 100 students and 30 faculty members worked in 3 shifts, 24x7 to support those in distress. Meanwhile, of the 40 Amrita Vidyalayam schools in the state, about 30 have become relief camps. They are providing shelter, food, clothing, toiletries and medical care.

Over 100,000 villages in Kerala, spread across 14 districts, have begun to receive clean drinking water as part of the Jivamritam Project launched by Mata Amritanandamayi Math six months ago. As many as 127 water filtration units have been installed by the Math as part of the project, which was inaugurated by President Ram Nath Kovind in October last year. In the next two months, the Math plans to raise the water filtration units to 200, which would benefit an additional 60,000 people from the marginalised rural communities, a Math press release said here.
