Rooted in Buddhist principles and united in love, Tzu Chi serves those in need in the spirit of a single global family. Tzu Chi volunteers selflessly reach out to the suffering in the world, while upholding the universal value of compassion and fostering the joy of providing social services.
A human life span is limited, but love and charity have no bounds. Witness the power of charity and the comforting of a suffering world by watching “Tzu Chi Year in Review (2024)”.
The footprint of our humanitarian aid missions has reached 136 countries.
It is said that every journey starts with a single step. Tzu Chi’s origin started from a single step of kindness. Throughout the past 59 years, as the number of Tzu Chi members and volunteers increased, Tzu Chi gradually journeyed from its birthplace in Hualien, Taiwan, to all corners of the world.
To date, Tzu Chi has over 10 million volunteers and employees in 67 countries, and provides services to 136 countries, creating a community of global citizens taking action to make the world a better place. Working to help those in need and in turn empower them to help others, Tzu Chi volunteers reach out to the most vulnerable within communities and work to ensure that no one is left behind.
Tzu Chi’s mission in Canada involves Charity, Medicine, Education, Humanistic Culture, and Environmental Protection with expansion planned for the near future.
We serve with compassion to provide relief to those who suffer.
