Buddhist Global Relief

Buddhist Global Relief (BGR) is an inter-denominational community of Buddhists and friends of Buddhism who seek to give concrete expression to the Buddha’s great compassion as an ongoing project in the contemporary world.

BGR addresses the plight of people worldwide afflicted by poverty, natural disaster, and societal neglect. It aspires to directly participate in the Buddha’s mission of liberating beings from suffering by addressing the most immediate causes of their distress and providing for their well-being and happiness.

Inspired by a sense of humane responsibility and commitment to social justice, its members seek to improve the lives of the men, women, and children that they serve, enabling them to lead fruitful lives of dignity, hope, and meaning.

Note from webmaster: BGR is still consider new in this world and has yet to establish themselves in every corner of the world. Nevertheless, we should not be hinder by the barrier that exist now. We can still do our part today for our own community.
