Daito Joy Grants

A small grant for a small act of good.

The Buddha’s teachings often point toward dāna — generosity — toward small actions that relieve suffering and create connection. Daito Joy grants are one-time gifts, funded by ordinary people giving a little, passed forward to people and projects that need a little.

Here to give, not to ask?

These grants are funded entirely by small, one-time gifts. Five dollars, once, keeps the pool open for the next person who needs it.
