Why Become Member

Do we ever disputed principle of Resource mobilization that “DROPS MAKE OCEAN”? … No !

Therefore,
Foundation intends creating a chain of those …

• Individual Volunteers.
• Authors of Sai Baba Books.
• Trusts (In India & Abroad).
• Temples (In India & Abroad), & Institutions (related with Spirituality, Philanthropy, or any legitimate trade or Industry).

What are Resources ? 
Resources need not necessarily mean MONEY.
Foundation will even though make a corpus for financial / monitory membership contributions & by all kinds of merchandising, for funds to be raised but, will also welcome the contributions of other natures, that include: –

• Intellectual Help
• Physical Help
• Help of Kinds than Cash
• Canvasser

An Individual Volunteer or Devotee could become a life family member or just a member of Foundation with even a nominal contribution of Rs.1000/- (provide hyperlink to downloadable membership form) and then could give intellectual & other resources to do all, that means as much or at times more than money.

Monitory Resources
An Individual Volunteer or Devotee could become a “SAI Family member” of Foundation with even a nominal contribution of minimum Rs.1000/-.
Whereas, trusts, Institutions, Temples could contribute maximum Rs. 25000/- to become a “SAI Family life member” of Foundation.

Other Resources
Still there is space for others who could lend intellectual resources to teach free of charge, locally canvass amongst the community, help getting local grants, statutory sanctions for building free Schools, free Hospitals, help needy with what they deserve, provide articles of sorts like Food stuff, Cleaning material, Clothes, Construction Material, Pooja Material, Interior Decoration, etc.

Intellectual Resource Mobilization
Others including money donors, could lend, free of any charge – their intellectual resources to teach, locally canvass amongst the community, help getting – local grants, & statutory sanctions for – building free Schools, free Hospitals, Conduct local Kirtans (Prayer meetings), Seminars, & Discourses to spread messages of BABA, Co-ordinate mega events with Foundation.

Providing in KIND instead of CASH
Help needy with what they deserve, reach articles of sorts – like Food stuff, Cleaning material, Clothes, Books, Construction Material, amenities like water, fans etc. Other Resources Elaborated
Physical Efforts:
Do and get others to do the regular cleaning of temple premises, Make a daily routine of thorough cleaning, maintaining, & general upkeep of the premises, by convenience of time to the volunteers. Like it is done by GURUDWARA committees.

Canvassing
Spreading the word is the best thing one could do in service of God. In the local area, if one decides to get even those in one’s direct influence, will in turn and again form a chain reaction to create a multiplication effect. Such dedicated canvassers are also essential components, for Foundation’s making a Local Temple, a Free School, a Free Hospital, Free Lodge or do any such developmental work, in an area of a Sai Center.

Foundation’s Role
Foundation is like an APEX BODY to:

• Assist spreading a movement of SHIRDI SAI BABA.
• Co-ordinate Baba’s work from Cities to Districts, State to Nation, & Country to the whole World.
• Help raise funds for central, nodal, and decentralized developmental work in a canalized manner for the benefit of masses.
• Help spread BABA’s message, news, interactivity, & universal brotherhood through the power of media vehicles, like TV, FILMS, CASSETTES, VCD/DVD, News letters etc.
• Provide a forum to all existing BABA CENTERS for consolidation of effort rather than isolated work.

Make Video / Feature films on all the work done by Individual devotees, Institutions, trusts, Kirtan Groups, and show it through the TV CHANNELS, VCD/DVD. Good work of one when seen by the others creates more good work … so those who may believe in the philosophy of “not getting into the lime light” must come up with a feeling that they will do so to motivate others.
