Offering Dana

As alms mendicants following the Buddha’s ancient monastic way, we depend entirely on the kindness and generosity of the lay community for our sustenance. We do not buy any groceries but rely on donations of groceries or cooked food for our daily meal.

If you would like to offer a lunchtime meal, dana, to the Hermitage residents; or if you live in Ottawa and would like to share transport with others to offer food to the bhikkhunis at the Hermitage, please write to: hermitage.dana@gmail.com

We welcome donations of currently needed items on our dana list.
