Alliance for Bhikkhunis

                                       

Partnering to support  fully ordained

Theravada women 

The Alliance for Bhikkhunis (AFB) supports monastic Theravada women through assisting with housing costs, medical needs, transportation expenses, assistance in pursuing Buddhist studies, or any other activities which further their leadership roles and ability to be of service to their communities, both practically and spiritually.

AFB supports women in the United States and abroad who are fully ordained or are seeking ordination.

The emphasis overseas will  be initially in Thailand where the few ordained women there often lack any sustained or organized support. We also wish to assist Thai maechees who wish to ordain and need assistance in accomplishing that.

 When we protect bhikkhunis, we protect ourselves and safeguard the Dhamma for future                                                                generations
