Donations
Our community is based on dāna, the Buddhist principle of generosity.
As part of spreading the Buddha's teachings, we think it's important we run our centre on the basis of dāna and aim to inspire a culture of giving.
We charge minimal amounts for our activities which we are able to do because so many people generously give money and time to establish and maintain everything we enjoy at the Coogee Buddhist Centre.
If you would like to support the ongoing running of our facility the best way to help is by giving a monthly standing donation.
With Gratitude 🙏
