Who's knocking at my door?
Meet the Fundraising
Appeal Team 2024
Karolina
Volunteer fundraiser
My name is Karolina. I’m originally from Poland, but I emigrated 20 years ago in search of a better life. Being part of the Karuna fundraising appeal means a lot to me. I am very excited to be part of the appeal to support the incredible work of Karuna whose values are based on the Buddhist ethical principles and the collective purpose is to strive for equality, education and spiritual development in South Asia. I look forward to connecting with our supporters and to sharing with them Karuna’s vision.
Kiara
Volunteer FUNDraiser
Hi! I’m Kiara, I was born in Poland and moved to the UK in my late teens. I currently live in Cambridge as I figure out what’s next for me. I was inspired by the stories of the people whose lives were changed by Karuna and wanted to be part of this work. I’m really looking forward to connecting with people on the doorstep.
Renate
Volunteer fundraiser
Hi, I’m Renate from Norway! In my spare time, I love spending time in nature and playing my guitar. I’m excited to fundraise for Karuna because I truly believe in the profound impact of their work. I can’t wait to connect with supporters and make a difference together!
Nealey
Regional fundraiser
I fundraise for Karuna because I value justice, equality and kindness. Our partners tirelessly support those with limited access to resources and basic human rights so they can live a better quality of life. It is an honour to connect people in UK with the richness of the human lives they will never meet and offer an opportunity to make a difference to those lives.

I love growing house plants from cuttings and putting them in interesting pots that I have collected at boot fairs.

Hi! I’m Jack, a regional fundraiser working in London. I first got involved in Karuna in Spring 2023.
Our door to door efforts reflect just one of the many ways Karuna does its fantastic work supporting those affected by poverty in South Asia. It is a joy and inspiration to be a part of it, to meet new supporters and to work alongside our friendly and supportive team!
