Centre Volunteering morning
A joyful opportunity to give time and energy & together become part of a compassionate vision
SUNDAY 28 June: 10am - 1PM
with The Team @ KMC Edinburgh
Join us at Kadampa Meditation Centre Edinburgh for a morning of volunteering!
Our next morning is coming soon! In the meantime let us know at the centre if you would like to volunteer. Our whole centre is run by volunteers and there are lots of ways to join in!
Tthere will be all sorts of activities to join in with for every level of ability, from painting, cleaning and gardening to making tea for everyone!
Kadampa Meditation Centre Edinburgh is a volunteer-run charity, and there are many ways to get involved. You might be surprised just how enjoyable it is to volunteer alongside others as part of a community and how meaningful it feels to be engaged in activities that benefit everyone who comes to the centre.
By giving your time and energy, you become part of a beautiful vision: helping everyone to have the opportunity to receive teachings and be guided in meditations that bring lasting peace and happiness. Volunteering is also a practical way to put the Dharma teachings into action, to create very positive karma and bring more meaning and joy into daily life.
