Help Us Purchase a Car
We lost are car at the beginning of the pandemic. The upside of this is for the past two years the Centre has not needed a car while we our classes were online or at the main Centre in Guelph.
However, now that restrictions have been lifted, we have begun to offer classes in other towns and cities rather than online classes. We get many requests a week for local classes but it is difficult to reach areas without a car.
The prices of good used cars are higher than ever, but we can’t wait much longer. The amount we will need for a car is $15,000 – to cover the cost of the car, CAA and insurance for a year.
To raise this money, we need the help of our community. Please consider donating to our car fund this fall.
Thanks to the generosity of our members, volunteers, and benefactors, Avalokiteshvara Kadampa Buddhist Centre has grown into a special place for people to meet and develop inner peace in their minds. This coming year we hope to further advance our education program to bring more classes to people seeking refuge in their modern busy lives.With your support and through our work, we will continue to establish inner peace in our own minds, and thereby begin to establish peace throughout the world.
