Volunteer
Our prime purpose in this life is to help others.
– HH Dalai Lama
Come join us in helping others!
You don’t need to live in New York to become part of our volunteer community.
Volunteering is at the heart of Shantideva Center’s operations. It is an amazing opportunity to connect with like-minded people to help you practice the path. Volunteering can also generate great satisfaction and support a well-rounded education around the pillars of scholarship, meditation, and service. As Yangsi Rinpoche notes, service is the activity that results from the integration of the study of Buddhist thought and the internal exploration of Buddhist practice.
