Make Offering to Merit Fund
''Just as a drop of water that falls into the great ocean
Will never disappear until the ocean itself runs dry,
Merit totally dedicated to enlightenment
Will never disappear until enlightenment is reached.''
What's special about Merit Fund?
-
Merits and your dedications will roll on forever.
-
Fund will be used for all kinds of pujas, prayers and virtuous activities.
-
The merit fund works as a backup reserve to support various virtuous activities of VNOS (e.g. prayers, pujas), so as to allow higher flexibility and provide necessary funding in times of urgency. One of the common usages would be to cover the basic cost of a puja, should there be not enough supporting donations.
How to get involved:
-
By sponsoring the merit fund, you are welcome to make your special dedications, which will be included in each of VNOS's virtuous activities. If you want to dedicate for any special occasion or specific people later on, you can always come back to make another offering.

Sponsoring Two Nepali Boys' Education
The monastery head, Geshe Ngawang Thorte, and the family of one of his nuns are in urgent need of financial support to enable two academically talented boys to continue their education.
The boys’ mother has written a letter appealing for help. Two donors gave half, and the Merit Fund offered the other half to cover their past-due tuition fees of three lakh and pay for their tuition fees for the upcoming year.
You can gain extra benefits by donating to the Merit Fund:
✓ Your name will be included in all dharma activities and pujas that are supported by the Merit Fund for special dedication.
✓ You can make a special dedication for yourself from the Gen Namgyel's daily light offering to the deities.
We recommend that everyone make a new donation each quarter to keep the Merit Fund running and to continue supporting dharma activities for your benefit. Your continuous offering is vital for sustaining our Dharma activities, which inevitably incur costs. However, we are confident that these will continue in the long term with your kind support.
