AYUDH Mauritius brings food to mothers and children in need

For the youth volunteers it was an opportunity to practise what Amma means when she speaks about ‘compassion in action’.

The AYUDH chapter with Amma Centre Mauritius led a team to a slum area to conduct a soup kitchen for the people living there. AYUDH is the Mata Amritanandamayi Math’s global youth initiative.

The 15 volunteers distributed meals of rice, lentils, and vegetables to the 50 children and adults who arrived for lunch. Most of the neighbourhood is single mothers and their children, so they especially made sure the children ate to their fill. There was also enough food for every family to take a package home.

“The AYUDH team really experienced how Amma teaches us about society’s need for love, compassion, and service. They understood first-hand how that can be expressed in a practical form by reaching out to others and how that uplifts us, too,” said Swami Yōgāmṛtānanda Puri.

Amma Centre Mauritius is located in Quatres Bornes, a township in the island country that is off the southeast coast of Africa.
