Aranya supports a network of more than 60 community-based Buddhist monastics who are elderly or live alone, and face difficulties in managing their multiple health and social care needs. We aspire to enable them to continue their spiritual practice and live in the community healthy and well.
Aranya provides healthcare support and social assistance such as medical escort, volunteer visits, befriending, legal consultation, information and referral, annual spring cleanings, end-of-life preparation and palliative care. We also organise merit making events for lay Buddhists to rejoice in festive celebrations and make offerings to the community-based Sangha.
Aranya continues its mission to support almost 100 senior Buddhist monastics who are staying alone, to enable their spiritual practice and ensure their daily well-being. Our upcoming events will bring the community together, fostering engagement and sustainable care through wellness programmes, gatherings, and meaningful support initiatives. Join us in strengthening this network of compassion and connection.
