We invite all people of goodwill to join us in purifying minds, pacifying the society and working towards a disaster-free world. "We should respect all life equally. We are willing to provide humanitarian assistance wherever disasters occur. Tzu Chi volunteers are always grateful for the chance to live in foreign lands. Tzu Chi volunteers accept the local resources that they receive locally to do charity work for each local communities. Thus, they earn love and respect from their neighbors." says by Master Cheng Yen.Aid the poor and educate the rich. "Respect, Gratitude and Love-Serving with Compassion" this is what Tzu Chi way.

I have been a volunteer with Tzu Chi for almost 20 years. To me, this is a faith based organization which inspires me, guide me and be the best of myself under the guidance of Dharma Master Cheng Yen. It is not only an organization of helping people, but also a path for me to practice.
We practice our guiding principles through all missions (charity, medical, culture, education, disaster relief, community work, bone marrow donation, and environment protection).
As volunteers, we pay our own expense while we do our volunteer work, and we buy our own uniforms. Donors of the foundation are from all different backgrounds from children, seniors, housewives to entrepreneurs, the amount can be any amount as long as donors has a giving heart.
