From Sunday, Nov 17 to Sunday, Dec 15, the Calgary Buddhist Temple is proud to be collecting new, unwrapped toy/gift donations for children ages 0-17 AND collecting new or gently used winter items for all age groups.

A holiday tree is set up at the front of the hondo (close to the alter area) for centralizing the charity collection.  Please give mindfully.

Monetary contributions or gift cards can be given to Susan Huntley or Laurie Takeda or email calgarytemplesangha@gmail.com to coordinate.
