Join us at RISE JIO: A day of Volunteering to make a real impact and have fun in person!
RISE is organising a group to attend the event. The event itself is not organized by RISE.
What does it mean to practise the Dhamma with your hands, your body, and your heart?
Join us for a meaningful morning of service at Appamada Vihari Meditation Center (AVMC), guided by Venerable Sayagyi Susila, founder and abbess of AVMC.
This is not just volunteering.
It is a practice of mindfulness, generosity, and community , where simple acts of service become a path of cultivation.
