Dana Partnership

As savers, Friends of the Western Buddhist Order (FWBO) members and supporters can play a part in helping more centres and Buddhist businesses start up or expand.

The Dana Saver is part of the Triodos Charity Saver range of accounts and is run in partnership with FWBO. It is an ethical, transparent savings account with a decent return, which targets your savings to FWBO projects.

You can open an account with £100 or more. The more you save, the higher the interest rate. You can also choose to donate all or some of your interest to FWBO Preceptors’ College. And, if you’re a UK tax payer, you can Gift Aid your donation, ensuring that FWBO enjoys the full benefit of your support.
