Volunteer Spotlight – 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

KMC FTL volunteer rock stars!
Thanks for all you do Maria!
Maria is an awesome volunteer! In addition to her behind-the-scenes work in social media and bookkeeping, she also shows her creative and beautiful mind through making lovely torma offerings and ritual preparations. 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 Mitch!
