Donate to help

The Kent Sri Lankan Buddhist Cultural Center is being established as a peaceful spiritual home for the Buddhist community in Kent — a place dedicated to meditation, Dhamma teachings, cultural preservation, mindfulness, and community wellbeing.

Like traditional Theravāda Buddhist temples around the world, Kent Temple will operate entirely through the kindness, generosity, and goodwill (dāna) of supporters and devotees.

Help Our Cause

To avoid unwholesome deeds, cultivate righteousness and keep one's mind clean with mindfulness

Pay with PayPal or a debit/credit card

Your Support Makes This Possibl

Your generosity will help support:

  • Establishment and maintenance of Kent Temple
  • Daily religious and community activities
  • Meditation and mindfulness programmes
  • Dhamma teachings and educational activities
  • Children’s Dhamma School and cultural learning
  • Community wellbeing and counselling programmes
  • Support and maintenance of the resident monastic community
  • Temple facilities, utilities, and operational costs

Every contribution — whether large or small — plays an important role in helping preserve and grow the Buddha Sāsana for future generations.

Ways You Can Support Kent Temple

Monthly Standing Orders

Regular monthly donations provide stable support and help the Centre plan its religious and community activities sustainably. We warmly encourage supporters to set up a monthly standing order.

If you are a UK taxpayer, please consider completing a Gift Aid Declaration, which allows the charity to claim an additional 25% from HMRC at no extra cost to you.  

One-Off Donations

We gratefully welcome one-time donations to support the development of Kent Temple and its ongoing programmes.

Donations may be made via:

  • Bank transfer
  • Standing order
  • Online payment
  • Cash or cheque offerings during temple events

Offering Dāna to the Sangha

In the Theravāda Buddhist tradition, the monastic community relies entirely on the generosity of lay supporters for its daily needs. Supporters may offer:

  • Food dāna
  • Robes and requisites
  • Travel support
  • Medical and practical support
  • Volunteer assistance and services

This tradition of generosity has supported Buddhist monasteries for over 2,500 years.
