Widows Pension Project

In 1998, Amma launched a pension project to help 50,000 destitute women throughout India. The money helps poverty-stricken women, many of whom are widows, to purchase necessities such as food, medicine and school books for children.

The M.A. Math, Amma’s Headquarters in Amritapuri, Kerala, South India distributes the pensions through its branch ashrams. A widow’s pension costs only 1200 Rupees annually. This is approximately AUD $45 to support a widow and her children for a whole year.

On behalf of the Melbourne M.A. Centre, you are invited to join other Australians in making Amma’s vision a reality, and thereby help underprivileged Indian women and their children to overcome extreme poverty and disadvantage. Amma is thrilled when devotees are inspired to support Her charitable activities to uplift humanity.

If you would like to participate, please fill out the form below and make a payment of $45 per pension. Payment can be made by cheque/money order or credit card (Visa, MasterCard or Bankcard)
