Buddhist Global Relief

Our mission is to combat chronic hunger and malnutrition. Bearing in mind the Buddha's statements that "hunger is the worst kind of illness" and "the gift of food is the gift of life," we sponsor projects that promote hunger relief for poor communities around the world. We pursue our mission by:

- Providing direct food aid to people afflicted by hunger and malnutrition
- Helping develop better long-term methods of sustainable food production and management appropriate to the cultures and traditions of the beneficiaries
- Promoting the education of girls and women, so essential in the struggle against poverty and malnutrition
- Giving women an opportunity to start right livelihood projects to support their families
