RSU Asian Society is organising the Vesak Week which is an event celebrated in South and South East Asia. All the buddhists around the world celebrate the birth, enlightenment and death of Gautama Buddha!

This year, the Month of Vesak started on 29th of April and ends on 29th of May! During this time, people get involved with charity work, meditation and making Vesak lanterns.

Our event will be conducted in two parts.

    Next to the lantern stall, there will be a charity stall where you can drop canned food, monetary donations and toys which we will donate to the children at Māras Centre.
