*NEW LOCATION*
Saluda River Walk

Saturday, October 12, 2024 | 10am – 1pm
Join us for a day of fun and fundraising for world peace!
We will gather at picnic tables located by the parking lot at Saluda River Walk,
engage in a meditation together, take a walk along the beautiful river park,
and end back at the meeting area for a picnic!
Our goal for this fundraiser is to raise $5,000
All funds raised will support KMC South Carolina’s efforts to help people
in South Carolina develop peaceful minds.
By increasing our own inner peace, we can bring about world peace.
As our founder, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso (Geshe-la) says,
“Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible.”
A donation of any size contributes to KMC South Carolina’s
dedication to World Peace and brings us closer to our goal.
With your help we can give people in South Carolina access to ways
of developing inner peace through learning Buddha’s teachings.
This is our form of public service.
