We are pleased to report that this past Saturday, June 5th, the Won Buddhist Temple of Philadelphia held its first plant and garden sale to benefit the Temple - and that the sale raised more than $900 for the Temple, while enhancing countless beings' lives by nurturing and sharing plants!
Many Sangha members and other kind and generous friends donated plants and related items such as planters, ornaments, arts and crafts, as well as their time. Several dedicated volunteers, along with our ministers, made and posted street signs, transported, labeled and arranged the sale items, arriving early Saturday morning to set up the event, and greet people who patronized the sale well into the afternoon.
The sale's proceeds will help with maintaining our beautiful Temple building and grounds, ensuring the Temple's ability to continue serving countless people throughout the Philadelphia area. Never doubt that you can enhance people's lives by participating in Temple fundraising events. Donating, finding donors, bringing items to the Temple, posting fliers, sharing your ideas, telling friends about an event - whatever your talent, you can support the Temple! We are grateful for your involvement in the Sangha, we look forward to future events, and we look forward to your participation.
