Practicing Generosity

These sits and retreats are supported solely by the community’s generosity. Your contributions will cover the costs of holding these events and scholarships (we do not want cost to be a barrier to anyone wanting to access these teachings and are committed to supporting those who are unable to contribute the amount per person that sits and retreats cost).

The listed amounts do not include any teaching or organizing fees. In keeping with Buddhist tradition, the teachings are offered as a gift, that is, both Jake and the organizing team are offering their time and skills as dāna.

You are also encouraged to offer dāna to support these and future sits and retreats. Please know that if you are not able to join us in person you can still participate and join us in the practice of generosity by giving a donation of any amount that works for you❣️
