Shirdi Sai Parivaar is devoted to spreading the philosophy and teachings of Shirdi Saibaba. SSP is a volunteer based non profit, with no employees on the payroll and all activities including Aarti’s are conducted by our volunteers round the year. All donations received from our devotees are completely spent on various activities related to operations and charity. We thank the devotees for your generous support
SSP is involved in various charitable activities and community services. We regularly do sandwich services and hot lunch services to several local homeless shelters and also do cooking services at the shelters. We have been serving dry rations to various local food pantries and also to animal shelters. With the help of our volunteers and your support we distribute blankets, back to school supplies and Holiday gifts to the less fortunate in the community.
SSP has been continuing to provide need-based scholarships to the academically accomplished college students from Milpitas Unified School District. We are currently exploring the possibility of expanding the scholarships to other SF Bay communities. We are also actively pursuing a plan to roll out scholarship programs for the needy based in India. Additionally, we provide various classes to kids and adults free of cost like languages, arts, yoga, math Olympiad, Vedic chants, tailoring and more.
We are also proud to have initiated a weekly program since Feb 2023 aimed especially at serving our seniors in the community. Encouraged by the participation of the seniors in our Senior Care Program covering a wide variety of specialized activities like bhajan, yoga, meditation, fun filled games, health monitoring etc. we are actively working on expanding the program to multiple days in the week and establish a full-time dedicated Center for seniors.
We have been conducting free health fairs with several health care services like Family medicine, Oncology, Endocrinology, Cardiology, Pediatrics, Dentistry and more. Periodically we also conduct blood drive, bone marrow drive, Flu & covid shot clinics with the help of our partners.
We recently started a weekly SSP Gurukul (for Grades 1 to Grade 5 beginning Oct 5th 2024) – an unique program focussed on enhancing good human values and selfless service through learnings and teachings from Shri Sai Satcharita. So far this has been well received by the kids and we are hoping to make it more exciting for kids and their parents.
SSP is focused on providing a safe and better experience for our devotees at SSP by continuing to invest in facility related upgrades. We count on your volunteering hours as well as generous donations for running our operations and community programs at SSP. We are one of few nonprofits who spend your entire earmarked donation dollars towards Charity and Community programs, without any additional overhead. Please donate generously and help us create a more positive impact in line with Baba’s teachings.
