Tips for Applicants

Direct application for grants from the foundation is not evident. The foundation primarily appears to run its own programs or facilitate fundraising for affiliated Buddhist initiatives and humanitarian causes. Prospective partners should likely engage with the Dhammakaya Meditation Centre, Albury, directly.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation's giving is deeply rooted in Buddhist principles, emphasizing the cultivation of good deeds, responsibility, and inner peace as a path to individual and world peace. It focuses on youth education through programs like V-STAR to foster ethical values and encourages meditation training to achieve mental clarity and composure, extending its support to humanitarian causes aligned with its spiritual mission.
