AMURT (Ananda Marga Universal Relief Team) was originally founded in India in 1965 to provide disaster relief to the neediest. Since then we have expanded greatly both in size and in terms of areas of work in which we engage, now with relief teams and grassroots development projects based in 80 different countries. Apart from disaster relief, project areas include rural health care provision and education programs, infrastructural and local industry development, schools and orphanages.
