Contributions

We deeply appreciate all the support that has been given to Karuna Buddhist Vihara. 

The existence of KBV is entirely dependent upon donations. There is no charge for any of our programs and many people have benefited as a result of your kindness and generosity. Anumodana!

To offer a meal to the sangha, please see our Meal Offerings page.

Offerings of other goods, as well as offerings of time, energy and skills are all very welcome. If you would like to make such an offering, please consider  this current list  of useful items for the monastery.
