Metta in action
The Abhayaratna Trust exists to relieve financial hardship and its consequences for individual members of the Triratna Buddhist Order.
We do this by giving practical aid 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.
