The program has benefitted more than 100,000 families.
“We must help those who suffer in disasters, those who have no shelter, those who shiver without clothes, and we must offer food to those who are hungry,” a direct quote from the founder of the Lotus Light Charity Society, Buddhist Grand Master Living Buddha Lian Sheng.
Lotus Light Covid-19 Community Caring Drive will continue partnering with corporative sponsors, food warehouses, local food assistance groups, and food distribution hubs to help those in need in our community.
