Getting Involved
Help Flourish Dharma
Becoming an active member of the Jangchub Ling sangha by donating your time to help with the running of our Centre and branches is one of the most meaningful ways to add a whole new dimension to your practice.
“By working to
improve
and organize
a Dharma
center,
we are working
for all living beings and
we are practicing
offering happiness to others.”
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
It doesn’t matter how small a task may seem, each contribution of your time is immensely meaningful.
Everyone is welcome to volunteer. You don't need a special skill or experience. We have many volunteer opportunities which can be done by anyone without training or with minimal training. Although, if you do have a special skill you'd like to contribute, such as carpentry or website expertise, please let us know. In terms of time, you can offer as little or as much time as you like. Each and every hour of volunteering counts.
Jangchub Ling Kadampa Buddhist Centre is a non-profit organisation that relies entirely on the efforts of our volunteers. Volunteering is a great way to share your talents or interests, have fun and help people in the local area find the benefit of a peaceful mind. Not only that, volunteering is a great way to meet and get to know other Dharma practitioners, and learn naturally about applying Dharma teachings to our lives.
We are a Volunteer-Led Organisation
