Help Yourself and Help Others
The teachings of Lord Buddha talk about the merits gained from helping others and doing good deeds. Donating time and money to the construction of Nisala Arana gives us all the opportunity of gaining merits.
Nisala Arana is still under construction. If you would like to help in any way, from donating money towards the construction of Kutties, to giving your time to help with work at the centre, please contact us.
