Nuchada Prypiroonrojn - Director of Development, Dhammadharini Support Foundation

At Dhammadharini, our work rests on a simple but powerful aim. We are building a complete and supportive environment where women can live the monastic life fully, grow as leaders, and stay rooted in the depth of our Buddhist heritage. This vision guides every choice we make, and your support is what allows it to come alive.

Opening the Door to Full Ordination

Many women today feel a clear calling to the monastic path. Our role is to make that path possible. We help cultivate the networks, training, and support needed for them to receive full ordination as bhikkhunis. This is how we keep the lineage strong and ensure it continues into the future.

Creating the Optimal Space for Practice

A monastic life dedicated to liberation needs stability. It needs a container shaped by Dhamma, Vinaya, virtue, meditation, and wisdom. We work to provide that container by ensuring bhikkhunis, novices, and aspirants receive the basic requisites they depend on each day. Food, shelter, robes, and medicine may sound simple, but they are the foundation that allows for deep practice, strong mindfulness, and the full living of the Noble Eightfold Path.

Nurturing Future Teachers and Leaders

Bhikkhunis are emerging as vital Dhamma teachers and community leaders. We support their training, teaching opportunities, and leadership development so they can guide the next generation with clarity and compassion.

Reconnecting to Our Ancient Lineages

Our work also reaches back in time. Through research, publications, and education, we reconnect with the great bhikkhuni leaders and sanghas of the past. Their example strengthens our present and reminds us of the depth of this path.

An Invitation to Support

I invite you to stand with us. Your contribution directly sustains the bhikkhuni community by providing the basic requisites of monastic life and making space for deep practice and leadership to grow. Together, we keep this lineage alive, strong, and accessible for the women who feel called to walk it.

Thank you for your steady support. May the power of the Triple Gem guide and protect you and all those you care for.
