At Free Buddhist Audio we host over 1500 talks by 200 speakers from 11 countries around the world. In our first five years we've provided over one million downloads to people just like you who are interested in learning more about how to apply the Buddha's teachings in their lives today. We are deeply committed to making Free Buddhist Audio freely available to all as Internet technology develops and the forms of human communication change. With a free service we can benefit far more people than we would if were to charge for our content. Which is where you come in: you can help us give the gift of the Dharma to the whole world!
How can you help? With your financial support you give the gift of the Buddha's teachings to more than 20,000 people who use our service every month in over 100 countries. And we've calculated that we only need 276 more friends to give regular supporting donations and help us meet our core funding needs. That will secure the future of our service for generations to come. If you like Free Buddhist Audio, become one of our 500 Supporting Friends by making a regular donation today.
Please consider making a monthly donation of £10 / $15 / €12. This is our suggestion, but any amount is most welcome! You can also make a one-off donation of any amount – from a single pound, euro or dollar to £100, €250, $1,000 or more. All donations are tax-deductible and every little bit counts. Together we will make a significant contribution to the happiness of many thousands of people who are searching for peace, meaning and a clear sense of compassionate values to live by. Thank you for your support!

I love the possibilities the internet opens up for communicating our values. It's been an amazing journey that's seen FBA grow from a small tape company into a major online space for Buddhist audio!

FBA is a great resource for women Triratna Buddhists to be able to share their Dharma teaching and practices with others around the world.

As the Chair of the charity that runs Free Buddhist Audio, I am completely inspired to be making available Dharma talks and study materials to anyone who has access to the internet.

When I think about FBA, the inexhaustible lamps from the Vimalakirti Nirdesa comes to mind. With the internet, the capacity for lamps to light other lamps is inexhaustible. It never needs to stop...

I make it a practice to act out generous impulses, even if only small efforts. Financially supporting the free availability of the Dharma online is a simple gesture for me which maintains a significant resource for others.
