The Power of Generosity
The Dhamma Center strives to make the liberating potential of the Buddha’s teaching accessible to anyone irrespective of means. That’s why all our classes, including our online classes, are available to anyone free of charge- By donating you are enabling us to share the teachings worldwide through our programs conducted 6 days of the week.
Our trustees, teachers and volunteers donate their time for free. We believe in the generosity economy, where we give freely of the Buddha’s vision and ask those that can to help us to do this by donating to the centre. The whole of the centre runs this way- We put generosity at the heart of what we do. Similarly, we ask that anyone who has benefited from teachings here at the Center to give what they can in order to help us help others. We appreciate whatever people feel able to give, no matter how big or small.
The Center particularly benefits from monthly regular pledges.
