Practicing Generosity
Sera Je Food Fund

Please help FPMT offer meals to the monks at Sera Je Monastery. Each $12 donation will provide three meals a day for one month to one of the more than 2,700 monks.

Lama Zopa Rinpoche has made the following statement about why we should all contribute to the Sera Je Food Fund:

The benefits from making a donation to the Sera Je Food Fund are enormous. You will be directly helping to relieve the burden on monks to provide for their own meals, you will be ensuring that the monks have well-balanced nutritious meals, which will contribute to their minds being clear and more able to study the precious Buddha Dharma.
