Volunteers in action. Are they not cool!?

Just a few of our Volunteer Rock Stars!

Thanks for all you do Mitch!

Mitch — one of our most active volunteers — always combines his joyful enthusiasm with a friendly heart towards everyone at the center.

Volunteering is my gift to help the center. And I gather the abundance of virtue. I love the opportunity to make offerings; it is precious to me to be in the presence of the Buddhas and to get their blessings.   ~ Mitch

Thanks for all you do Maria!

Maria is an awesome volunteer with her work in social media and bookkeeping, and assisting with the lovely torma offerings. KMC Fort Lauderdale is so much richer and stronger with Maria on the volunteer team.

The dharma center is my safe place. No matter what happens in life, I know when I come I will always be received by someone’s kindness and that comforts me. It’s like the nourishing and caring of a mother that always makes you feel good and protected. I thank KMC Fort Lauderdale Center for the opportunity to give, purify negativities and create the causes for a better future life.    ~ Maria

Thanks for all you do Jan!

Jan’s outgoing and friendly nature makes everyone feel at home right away, especially first-time visitors. Her joy, enthusiasm and laughter are contagious and result in many new friendships both for herself and for the Center.

I volunteer because I love it here. This place means so much to me.  I always have a smile when I am here. I want people to know that it helped me during very difficult times.  ~ Jan
