Sri Sathya Sai Baba has said, “Humanitarianism is an extended and sublimated form of self-love. Man must first humanize himself before attempting to divinize himself. Cultivate humanness and be an ideal to society.” 

Sri Sathya Sai Baba’s mission was always focused on providing basic needs to the people suffering on any account, including natural disasters such as floods or earthquakes.  He directed the construction of homes, schools, or hospitals and provided water supply, food, and electricity to the underserved. 

In order to serve our brethren around the world in their time of greatest need, including a disaster event, pandemic, poverty, and loss of homes, the Sri Sathya Sai International Organization members have organized to adequately respond to major disaster events and relief missions, provide resources and training to members to handle disasters, deal with pandemic issues, conduct food drives and construct homes.
