Annadanam Seva – The Greatest Form of Service


 In Indian tradition, Annadanam (offering food) is considered one of the noblest and most sacred forms of charity. It is believed that feeding the hungry is equal to worshipping God Himself. At Shri Shirdi Sai Trust, Chennai, this belief is not just a thought, but a daily practice inspired by the teachings and blessings of Shirdi Sai Baba.

Why Annadanam is Important

Hunger remains one of the biggest challenges in society. For many elderly people, daily wage workers, and underprivileged families, even a single wholesome meal can make a huge difference. Annadanam not only fills an empty stomach but also restores hope, dignity, and strength.

Sai Baba taught us:

“If you feed the hungry, you are feeding Me.”

Following this divine message, Shri Shirdi Sai Trust actively organizes food distribution programs to ensure that no one goes hungry.

Our Service to Humanity

The Trust regularly provides:

  • Nutritious meals to the needy

  • Food support for elderly and abandoned individuals

  • Annadanam during special days and spiritual occasions

Every meal served is prepared with care, cleanliness, and devotion, ensuring both physical nourishment and spiritual fulfillment.

How You Can Be a Part of This Seva

Service becomes meaningful when done together. You can support Annadanam seva by:

  • Donating any amount according to your capacity

  • Sponsoring meals on birthdays, anniversaries, or remembrance days

  • Volunteering your time and effort

Even a small contribution can help provide a meal to someone in need and earn the divine blessings of Sai Baba.

Blessings That Come from Giving

Annadanam is not just charity—it is a blessing for the giver. Those who participate in this seva often experience peace of mind, prosperity, and spiritual growth. When you feed someone with love, that love returns to you in countless ways.

Join Hands with Shri Shirdi Sai Trust

At Shri Shirdi Sai Trust, Chennai, we believe that no one should sleep hungry. With your support, we can continue this sacred mission and spread compassion across society.

Let us walk together on the path of service, guided by Sai Baba’s grace.
