Latest Retreat Centre Funding Update

In February 2024, the initial builder was removed, and the NBM Building Team took over as “Owner Builder,” appointing a registered builder to continue. The team of professional volunteers found many defects in the partially completed structures, requiring repairs, and continued work to finish the cottages, courtyard, and hall.

Due to a 30-60% rise in building costs, with some materials increasing by up to 100%, the original building fund is insufficient. To complete the project, we need $150,000 to cover part of the shortfall and $350,000 to repay an interest-free loan.

The BSV-NBM communities sincerely thank all donors, locally and abroad, for their generosity in supporting this meritorious project to help reduce suffering through Dhamma practice.
