A place where you can support our vision to make our new centre a beautiful place for all who seek the wisdom of the Buddhas teachings

Auckland

The Auckland Buddhist Centre has been transforming Aucklanders lives for almost 50 years. Last year we moved from our ageing Grey Lynn property into new premises at the base of Maungawhau/Mt Eden. We're loving the new building but it needs a major redesign so it’s fit for purpose for the next 50 years and beyond.

We want a place where new generations of Aucklanders can discover the dharma just like we did. We want a place that’s flexible enough for different groups of people to meditate, study the dharma and make lifelong spiritual friends.

Now is the time to take on this ambitious project which will enable Sangharakshita’s translation of the dharma to transform the hearts, minds and lives of many more people.

We have a stunning design and substantial funds to start the renovation project.

But.......... we need an additional $250,000 to finish it. We are exploring all sorts of options to raise funds, we have set a goal of $20,000 from Givealittle.

Can you help? Whatever you can give is welcome.

About us

We are Auckland Buddhist Centre. Our Core Purpose is to make the Buddha's teaching available to all who seek its wisdom

Use of funds

The money is required to complete the refurbishment of our new Centre and to cover operating costs while the centre is out of action during the refurbishment process. The build starts in October so all monies will go to the project. If we don’t raise $250k via give a little, we will look at other fund raising options.
