Donations
This Temple is self-supporting through your donations alone. Your contributions allow the Temple to continue its programs and outreach. Any level of contribution is appreciated. Our Temple is a registered charity and all donors are sent a tax receipt letter.
There are three easy ways to offer your financial contributions:
Cash: You can place your cash donation in the donation box as you enter the meditation hall. If you would like to offer incense and prayer you may do so at the alter. There is a slot for your cash or check donation in the alter as well. Envelopes and pens are in the lobby, if you'd like a tax receipt letter, please put your donation in an envelope and write your name and address on the front.
Checks can be made payable to Won-Buddhism of Philadelphia, Inc.
Debit or Credit Card Donations: To donate, please click on the 'Donate' button below.
Our Temple is charged a 3% fee for donations made through PayPal, so please consider adding 3% to cover this fee. Thank you!

Cleaning the meditation hall before or after services
Volunteering for special fund-raising events.
