Our Thailand Project Team has made history!
Two Thai Wats have signed an agreement with our Dharma Voices For Nutrition Foundation to serve plant-based meals every Saturday for a year!
In Thailand, it is customary for monks to be fed by the community, and monks eat whatever they are given. This has led to many monks experiencing poor health.
For the first time, Wats will be able to guide lay people on the types of food to bring for the monks, prioritizing their health and nutrition. Our program will also provide education and resources on the health benefits of plant-based diets and how to prepare such meals. Congratulations to our Thailand Project Team for this historic agreement. The team is working on implementing this program at other wats across Bangkok to help reduce the number of animals killed for food.
