Amma's Desire: Everyone in the world should be able to sleep without fear, at least for one night. Everyone should be able to eat to his fill, at least for one day. There should be at least one day when hospitals see no one admitted due to violence. - Amma
Mother’s Kitchen
Amma’s Charitable Meal Program in Massachusetts

Since April 2008, local sevites have been participating in the Tuesday Meals Program at the First Parish Church in Harvard Square. We gather at the Church every Tuesday from 5-7:30 pm to help prepare and serve dinner and assist with clean up. Also, once a month we prepare and deliver a nutritious meal to a transitional shelter in Central Square, Cambridge.
We invite you to join our team of Mother’s Kitchen volunteers and help us bring a wholesome and nourishing meal to those in need. Please contact Pam Reich if you are interested in volunteering in any capacity on Tuesdays, or if you would like to be involved in any of our future endeavors:

Mother’s Kitchen started in Boston in 1998 in response to AMMA’ s directive to have her children serve and feed the poor. A female devotee, inspired by AMMA’s call to her Satsang, pioneered Mother’s Kitchen at a homeless shelter in Cambridge, MA. The project was announced at a Satsang meeting and a handful of devotees volunteered to cook meals at home and deliver the meals to the shelter. Mother’s Kitchen expanded in 2000, under the leadership of another devotee coordinator, to include a second and larger shelter for women with children in the city of Boston. At this center, over 1,000 meals were cooked and served to homeless women and children. Devotees from different locations in Massachusetts and other states in New England participated in this seva. In total, over 2,800 meals have been served since 1998 at shelters in Boston and Cambridge, MA.
