For the Well-Being of Humanity
The Supreme Buddha’s life and teachings have inspired many around the world to be kind-hearted and generous individuals. A random act of kindness by one person can be the catalyst for positive change in the world. Therefore, Mahamevnawa Brisbane actively encourages people of all ages to carry out benevolent activities wherever possible. The activities that we organize include Clean Up Australia Day events, blood donations with the Red Cross, tree planting, and visiting aged care centers and more. You can join us in this joyous, meritorious effort and reap the benefits in this life itself.
Blood Donation
This meritorious activity has now been ongoing for the past years. With the direction and help of the reverend monks at the monastery, our devotees, and the Red Cross in QLD these events have been organized at the Red Cross center at Ipswich .
MBM of Brisbane gratefully acknowledges the support and assistance extended to us by the Australian Red Cross Blood Service to make this series of events a success. We respectfully share all the merits collected during conceptualizing, organizing, and completing blood donation activities with everyone involved who appreciates such endeavors.
