Free HomesAmma's house-building project provides free houses for the homeless and slum-dwellers. In 1998, Mr. Atal Behari Vajpayee, the then Prime Minister of India, handed over a symbolic key for the first 5,000 free homes to beneficiaries in Kerala.By 2002, the initial target of 25,000 homes throughout India had been met, and Amma immediately made a second pledge- this time to build 100,000 houses throughout India. The Ashram is providing free homes and constructing villages all over India. This vast project is possible thanks to the selfless service of Amma's monastic disciples and volunteers. They not only supervise the construction of the houses but also build roads, provide electricity, drill bore wells and install water tanks. Houses commonly have two rooms, a verandah and separate bathrooms. State Governments are providing land for the Ashram's new developments in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh in the North, W. Bengal in the East, Rajasthan Maharashtra in the West, Bengal in the East, and Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala in the South. |
