About Us

What is "Metta"?
"Metta" in Pali means "loving kindness".

Metta Welfare Association
The Metta Welfare Association (Metta) was founded in 1992 by Venerable Shi Fa Zhao, Abbot of the Golden Pagoda Buddhist Temple. He is also the President and Abbot of the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum.
Registered as a charity in 1994, Metta is endorsed by the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports, Ministry of Health and Ministry of Education. We are also members of the National Council of Social Service, Singapore Hospice Council and Singapore Disability Sports Council.

Motto
Compassionate love to share
Brightens hope to those we care

Vision
In accordance with The Great Compassionate Vows of The Buddha of Medicine, Metta aims to provide quality health care and welfare services for the needy and less fortunate, regardless of race or religion.
