Lotus — almsgiving (dāna) invitation template
Serene white with a saffron lotus. Every detail on the card below is editable — names, date, venue, message — and the design stays exactly this polished on every phone. Invite family and friends to a dāna or memorial almsgiving with a calm, respectful card — in Sinhala or English — sent to each person on WhatsApp so relatives abroad see it the same day.

How it works
Frequently asked questions
How do I word an almsgiving (dāna) invitation?
State the occasion — a remembrance, a housewarming blessing, a birthday pinkama — the date, the temple or home, and the time the monks arrive. The Lotus and Temple Gold templates carry the appropriate tone.
Can it be in Sinhala?
Yes, fully. Type Sinhala straight in; the card, the WhatsApp message and the RSVP page all render it correctly.
Is a digital card appropriate for a memorial dāna?
Families increasingly send the dāna notice on WhatsApp because relatives abroad see it the same day. Keep the design plain — Lotus is designed for exactly this.
Can I invite people to the almsgiving and a separate meal?
Use the message box for the meal details, or send a second card to the same list.
Is it really free?
Designing is completely free with no account. Adding guests and sending WhatsApp links needs a free account, and everything stays free for your first 3 months — after that a small plan from $1.49, less than printing ten cards.
