Who we are
Rooted in Dhamma, driven by Metta.
Our Mission
To provide humanitarian services to the vulnerable, irrespective of religion: quality education for underprivileged children, health care, and empowering communities and women to become self-reliant.
Our Vision
A compassionate society where every person, regardless of birth or belief, can live with dignity, health and wisdom.
Our Values
Loving-kindness, non-harming, honesty and selfless service (dana) guide everything we do.
“Just as a mother would protect her only child with her life, even so let one cultivate a boundless love towards all beings.”
Our focus
What we do.
Our major focus. Children in poor and remote areas are often deprived of quality education. We hold career counselling seminars and work so underprivileged children get moral, quality education.
- Career counselling seminars
- Motivational seminars
- Moral & quality education
- For underprivileged children
Service to mankind is the greatest wholesome deed. With support from donors and kind-hearted people, we reach victims of disasters, like the 2022 cyclone in Arunachal Pradesh, with rations and essentials.
- Cyclone relief
- Relief supplies
- Emergency support
- Everyday acts of kindness
Rooted in the Buddha's teaching of loving-kindness (metta), we organise religious functions like Katina Civara Dana and support the Sangha.
- Katina Civara Dana
- Dhamma talks
- Meditation sessions
- Monastic support
We work to bring basic health care and awareness to communities that rarely see a doctor.
- Health check-up camps
- Blood donation drives
- Medicine support
- Hygiene awareness
We empower individuals and communities to become self-reliant, and work to address the inequalities faced by girls and women.
- Women empowerment
- Equal opportunity for girls
- Self-reliant communities
- Skills & awareness
