Metta in action
The Abhayaratna Trust exists to relieve financial hardship and its consequences when it arises among individual members of the Triratna Buddhist Order.
We do this by giving practical aid to Order members in the form of cash grants, non-financial support and running individual appeals. We also develop Sangha Support Networks to organise local help for Order members in need.
