SUVARNAMITRA SERVICE CENTRE, SUPPORT FOR THE BUDDHIST ELDERS IN THEIR HOMES

Let's face it - being a caregiver can be extremely stressful.  Whether it's a parent with Alzheimer's, a depressed spouse, a child with juvenile diabetes, or a friend with cancer, caring for those we love takes it out of us emotionally, psychologically, physically, and often financially. 

Fortunately, with the support of Aloka Foundation and Buddhist Missionary Society, there is something we can do to bring a greater sense of wellbeing into their lives as a volunteer caregiver.  We can give ourselves compassion for the difficulty of the experience, responding to those feelings of worry, frustration and exhaustion with patience and understanding. 

Suvarnamitra Call centre is looking for Volunteers, and if you are keen to donate, you may also send your feedback to the contacts listed in the brochure below:
