Rainbow Sangha - Brasil

We are a Buddhist group of traditional schools aimed specifically at the LGBTQIA+ public. Our desire is to be an LGBTQIA+ representation in Buddhism, and at the same time a representation of Buddhism among the LGBTQIA+ public. Formed by the integration of practitioners of traditions such as Shin, Zen, Jodo, Nichiren, Vajra and Theravada, the group aims to welcome everyone through a unified proposal on how Buddhism can contribute to answers to the most urgent social and spiritual demands of this community. (Based in Brazil)

Gardena Buddisht Church - Ichi-Mi

The Gardena Buddhist Church was established in 1926 by the Japanese immigrants of the Gardena Valley in Southern California. Buddhism readily adapts itself to a new land, blending in some of the native cultures and customs into the traditional Buddhist teachings. Buddhism in America is no exception: although of Japanese origin and tradition, we have blended American culture and customs into our services and have created a uniquely American Buddhism of Japanese origin.

Toronto Buddhist Church

Founded in 1947, TBC is a temple in the Jodo Shinshu tradition of Pure Land Buddhism. Jodo Shinshu is the largest school of Buddhism in Japan, and was the first to organize temples in Canada (1905). Today we are an integrated sangha with a Japanese Canadian base and members from many backgrounds.
