BLIA Toronto YAD

BLIA Toronto YAD Toronto Buddha's Light International Association, Young Adult Division (Toronto BLIA YAD) Feel free to come and visit Fo Guang Shan Temple of Toronto!

BLIA-YAD is the abbreviated form of the Buddha's Light International Association—Young Adult Division, and we are part of a greater global Buddhist organization called Buddha's Light International Association (BLIA). BLIA-YAD Toronto group was officially founded in 2001, and currently there are over 50 different groups worldwide.
​
BLIA-YAD is a group of youths who are not necessarily Buddhists, b

ut have an interest in learning more about Buddhism and life. Through organizing various activities and events, BLIA-YAD is actively involved in both promoting the teachings of Buddha and the fellowship among young people of today. Our YAD group is divided into two groups: ​
YAD in Society (recent graduates and working individuals)
YAD in Schooling (high school and post-secondary students)

Youth aged 14-35 can join one of our two YAD groups. If you are looking to learn about Buddhism, find volunteering opportunities, gain experience in event organization and leadership, and get to know positive people – then YAD is the group you're looking for!

Last Saturday, as part of our tradition in recent years, Toronto YAD visited Westminster Court Senior Residence to celebrate Chinese New Year with the residents 🧧🏮

An afternoon filled with lion and dragon dances, music, snacks, and warm companionship. Seeing the smiles and laughter from the seniors reminded us that the spirit of the New Year is not only celebration, but also connection and care. ❤️

Grateful for everyone who helped make this visit possible, and we look forward to continuing this meaningful tradition in the years to come. 🐎✨
