Our Cause
Putting Dhamma into practice through the transformative power of education.
Teach for Peace
Welcome to Teach4Peace, a Buddhist charity organisation dedicated to putting Dhamma into practice through the transformative power of education. We believe that the greatest gift is the gift of education, which is a long-term investment in a brighter future. By educating a child, we create an endless ripple of giving back, impacting many generations to come.
By providing educational opportunities, we aim to empower individuals to break free from their social context and achieve their fullest potential.
Join us on this noble journey of making a difference through education, where every contribution counts in building a peaceful and brighter world for all. Together, let's sow the seeds of knowledge and compassion for a better tomorrow.
About Teach4Peace's Logo
The **Teach4Peace logo** embodies a profound meaning that reflects our mission and vision. At its core, the logo represents the **Dhamma** (timeless teachings of the Buddha), symbolized as a **raft or ship** that carries people across the vast oceans of life, guiding them on their journey. The **ocean** represents life's challenges, and the raft symbolizes the guidance we provide.
The essence of the **compass 4** signifies our commitment to support children from all corners of the world. As of 2022, we have initiated our mission in **Siem Reap, Cambodia**, where we work to bring education and opportunities to children, helping them break free from the constraints of their social context.
Our Generosity Program
We believe in fostering a culture of mutual support and shared responsibility. Our scholarship program encourages families to contribute their time and skills back to the school community. This initiative is not a demand for repayment but a unique opportunity to foster a spirit of giving and strengthen community bonds.
-
**Meaningful Contribution:** We calculate a suggested number of hours for each family's "generous time" based on the value of the scholarship received.
-
**Purposeful Engagement:** This contribution can be made each term through various activities such as maintenance, cleaning, assisting with school programs, or other areas where support is needed.
-
**Fostering Unity:** The purpose is to create a fair and meaningful way for families to actively participate, show generosity, and help build a stronger, more caring school community together.
