INFINITE COMPASSION
is an international aid organisation founded by the realised Tibetan Buddhist master Shamar Rinpoche in 2009:
‘It is wonderful to pray to Buddha, but it is even better to help another being in need and distress.
Active help is a wonderful remedy for all our problems.’
INFINITE COMPASSION stands up for:
- underprivileged people,
- especially children in the Himalayan region,
- the construction of schools in underserved areas,
- medical care,
- reducing and ending the unnecessary suffering of animals.

All members of INFINITE COMPASSION work on a voluntary basis, which means that we only require a very low administrative outlay of 2% – in contrast to some other organisations that have to spend up to 40% of donations on administrative costs. For all the projects we support, we have trustworthy local contacts who are personally known to us and who manage and monitor the respective project.
