Film for Compassion: A Fundraiser for Monastics in Sagaing

Join us for a moving virtual screening of A Thousand Mothers, the award-winning documentary by Kim Shelton, which offers a rare and tender glimpse into the quiet strength of Buddhist nuns in Myanmar.

As Sharon Salzberg shared:

Beautifully filmed, A Thousand Mothers shines a light into the simple, dignified lives of a group of nuns at a long established nunnery in Myanmar… a must-see for anyone interested in Buddhist monastic ways.

This event supports monastics in Sagaing, one of the regions most deeply affected by conflict and displacement. Monks and nuns there continue to shelter, educate, and care for their communities despite unimaginable challenges.

By joining this fundraiser, you’re not just watching a film, you’re standing in solidarity with those who live the teachings of compassion every day.

Together, we can keep compassion alive in Myanmar.

Reserve your spot and help us uplift Sagaing’s monastic communities.
