We are more convinced than ever of the need to cultivate benevolence and cooperation to build a better world, to meet the challenges of our time and those of tomorrow. We are happy to continue, together with you, Karuna’s benefactors, partners and members, to humbly commit ourselves to this ideal.

The mission of Karuna-Shechen is rooted in the secular values of Buddhism and is manifested through the synergies between those we support, our benefactors, our volunteers, our friends, and our teams. Aware of this interdependence, we can progress together toward a world imbued with altruism.
Whether you are discovering us today or have been with us for a long time, your support is invaluable. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for being with us.
