Tzu Chi volunteers in Jordan continue
to provide care and support for Syrian
refugees—some of the millions who have
fled civil war, terrorism, and instability in their
homeland. On December 2, 2014, volunteers
visited a refugee center in Amman and
distributed emergency cash and supplies.

Before attending Pope Francis’s outdoor Mass in
Tacloban, Philippines—site of Typhoon Haiyan’s
most severe damage and Tzu Chi’s Cash-for-Relief
program—Tzu Chi volunteers first visited Archbishop
John Du on January 15, 2015. The Archbishop thanked
Tzu Chi for reaching across religious lines to help the
Philippines, and Tzu Chi spokesperson Rey-Sheng Her
presented him a Jing Si pottery lamp as a token of
Dharma Master Cheng Yen’s gratitude and blessing.
