Refugee Support  

The service activities that we undertake are meant to experience unity in society. It is a great mistake if you think that you are serving others. In fact, you should not consider anybody as "other", for all are the embodiments of divinity.
- Sri Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol. 35, 21st July 2002

After being displaced from their native countries, refugees face several challenges.  Taking care of refugees is part of the Community Outreach projects at the Sri Sathya Sai International Organization –USA.  Supporting refugees is in the form of tutoring refugee children, holding special events, providing supplies for rebuilding their homes and creating vegetable gardens for refugee families.

You have no reason to feel proud when you are able to help another, for your skill or wealth or strength or courage or official position that gave you the chance to serve was the gift of God, whether you recognize it or not. You are only offering this God's gift to another God's gift, namely the poor, the illiterate, the weak, the diseased, the grieving, the broken-hearted, who seek your help.
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
