FPMT Charitable Projects

In 2024, the FPMT Community Support Fund (CSF) was launched as a new evolution of the much‑loved International Merit Box Project, which for more than 21 years provided grants to local FPMT centers, projects, services, study groups, and Dharma initiatives around the world. This new fund continues that meaningful legacy, offering vital support to projects that bring the Dharma to life in communities across the globe.

Each year, during January and February, the FPMT International Office invites grant applications for a wide range of activities aligned with the FPMT mission and Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s Vast Visions. In 2026, the CSF awarded US$11,800 in grants to eight inspiring Dharma projects and activities, reflecting the diversity, creativity, and compassion of the global FPMT mandala.
