BLIA YAD Fund Raising for CHCH Japan Earthquake Relief

Buddha’s Light International New Zealand Young Adult Division (YAD) had a committee meeting on the 19th of March at 3.30 pm. The meeting was held by the YAD new President, Lin Hao-Tin with 6 of YAD committee members attending the Tea House. The meeting was held to brainstorm about ways to help the people that are affected by the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan on the 11th of March. There were a lot of ideas in the meeting that includes marathon runs, hair shaving, Wii game competitions, selling bread and cookies, and selling their own treasured things. In the end of the meeting, the FGS South Island NZ’s YAD decided to sell bread and cookies in help of supporting Japan. Besides that, the YAD members had also decided to help tidy the garden of the Buddhist temple and enjoy desserts at the Tea House next coming Saturday. The YAD group will update the report for Venerable Juexi of the activities they have planned and run this relief activity as soon as possible.
