The Joy of Giving Initiative
At Ananda Ahmedabad, we have started an initiative called ‘Joy Of Giving’ with an intention to spread Joy in it’s true sense to those who are more in need but lack the means and resources to experience it.
How it Works
Each month, we pick a social cause and collaborate with NGOs and other ethical organisations in the city, who are engaged in activities that are aligned with our cause and offer support to them.
With ‘Joy Of Giving’ initiatives, we strive to make each activity an immersive experience for the benefiters by giving them a glimpse of our Guru’s teachings and vibrations and not merely distribute certain offerings or material support.
Our First Initiative – Child Development Services
On Saturday, 21/02/26 – by the grace of our Gurus, we were able to successfully bring to life our first such initiative in line with the larger vision we hold to reach out to as many people as we can in the city. We picked ‘Child Development Services’ area as our first cause for the initiative, with the Anganwadi located in Shela Gaon, Ahmedabad. This Angwanwadi supports 110 underprivileged kids between the age group of 2-6 years. It was a truly joyful experience serving and spending time with the little ones, their energy was magnetic.
As a group of devotees along with the Kriyacharya at Ananda Ahmedabad – Nayaswami Devendra carried out the activity : they talked to the kids, chanted with them, did Swami Kriyananda’s Superconscious Living Exercises in local language, some art and craft activities and distributed freshly prepared meals which the kids relished after practicing food prayers, chanting ‘Aum’ and raising their vibrations and energies.
What's Next
As we laid the foundation with this initiative, we intend to carry one such activity, each month for a different cause.
This Month - March 2026
We’ll be visiting an Oldage Home on 21st, Saturday, 4-6pm. We’ll be doing some light exercises, meditate briefly, chant and do satsang followed by serving them the meal supported by us.
