The Buddhist Global Relief family is a living example of the interconnectedness of all beings joined by the spirit of compassion, uniting our supporters and volunteers, our generous donors, our partners, and individuals in need in a shared endeavor to create a more equitable and compassionate world. With this series, we invite you to meet a few members of the BGR family.

By Ayya Dhammadīpā • These days there is a lot of emphasis on “finding your tribe.” Perhaps in response to the pervasive feelings of loneliness and isolation that are engendered by cultures of fierce economic competition and were reinforced by the pandemic, folks are now talking a lot about ways to identify and connect with other people like them.
