Sripada 2498 – A Sai Anugraha Initiative for Structured Seva and Social Impact

Dear Family members, 

Greetings from Sai Anugraha! 

Sripada 2498 – Initiative Overview

Sripada 2498 is a structured spiritual and seva initiative of Sai Anugraha, inspired by the divine guidance of Sripada Srivallabha Swami. The initiative is built on disciplined collective contributions of ₹2,498 offered on designated auspicious days (Chitta Star Days), transforming individual devotion into organized, transparent, and impactful service. 

Guided by the belief that Sai Anugraha is a Family of Helping Hands & Praying Hearts, Sripada 2498 focuses primarily on education sponsorships and essential humanitarian support. Through collective faith, discipline, and accountability, the initiative continues to uplift lives while strengthening the shared spiritual journey of all participants. 

Objectives

The core objectives of Sripada 2498 are to:

• Convert collective devotion into organized and impactful seva 
• Support education sponsorships for deserving students 
• Provide essential humanitarian assistance to families in need 
• Maintain transparency, accountability, and trust in fund utilization

Approach & Governance

This structured approach ensures alignment with Sai Anugraha’s principles of responsibility and integrity.
