Donation

Thank You Ling Shen Ching Tze!

Just before the holidays, the Ling Shen Ching Tze Temple donated over $5,000 of essential clothing, food, and supplies to help our unhoused neighbors stay warm. This generous donation included over 70 winter coats, 50 sets of thermals and blankets, 100 packs of socks and underwear, and other crucial cold weather gear.

For the last three years, the Redmond Buddhist temple has given thousands of items to assist Facing Homelessness in caring for the unhoused community during the winter months. We are truly grateful to partners like Ling Shen Ching Tze who mobilize compassion into action when the need feels greatest.

Thank you for your big hearts! We encourage other community organizations to consider hosting donation drives as well to help our unhoused neighbors get essential items they need.

PLEASE MEET THE TRUE BUDDHA FOUNDATION:

As winter's wet and cold approach, suffering turns to survival. For the next four months countless people without basic needs being met will come to the Facing Homelessness "Window of Kindness" looking for warmth and connection.

Please take a moment to help us meet that steady stream of need. Send sleeping bags, tents and tarps to Facing Homelessness 4001 9th Ave NE, Seattle WA 98105. Each donated item will be handed out with respect and unconditional love.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to the True Buddha Foundation for bringing 82 sleeping bags to our office this last Friday!!

We had the sincere pleasure of meeting Rev. Lian Ling, Rev. Lian Jim, and Yang Ming. Sitting with them you could feel their genuine concern for those living outside, made all the more clear by the big smiles when the first bag was given away. Yang Ming shared, "It is very important that teachings are put into action."

True Buddha Foundation is the largest Buddha charity in Asia. Internationally they focus on helping support educational costs for those unable, from beginning schooling through university.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to True Buddha Foundation for all your sincere beautiful kindness.
