The Gift of Food
Anna Dana — the offering of food — is among the oldest and most honoured acts of giving in the Buddhist tradition. IBMCT serves nutritious meals to elders, children, patients and monastics across its programs.
Every meal is prepared and served with care, because nourishment is not only for the body — it is a message that someone cares.
