The mission of Charity is derived from the spirit of "kindness." Kindness means great mercy even to strangers; it is the giving of happiness to others. In practice, this means internationalizing our charity work with the conviction of "Great Kindness has no regrets." Following the footsteps in Taiwan, Tzu Chi Canada contributes its effort in charity in various methods, such as home visits, Food Bank, retirement centre services, and other volunteering stations. Furthermore, Tzu Chi Canada also has had various fundraising campaigns to support the international relief. Just recently, Gary Ho, CEO of Tzu Chi Canada, assembled an 11-member relief team and led them to Sri Lanka for relief work.
