Dana is not tax deductible but is a beautiful way to support our teachers. In Buddhist tradition, students offer dana to the teacher as a show of gratitude.

“When I was in residency at Mountain Cloud in 2017, (then, still a ‘guinea pig’ program), I remember walking into the dining hall just as the Board was wrapping up a Strategic Planning Meeting. Folks were in good cheer, still chattering and laughing together as they gathered up their notebooks to clear out the room. On the wall hung several note-riddled poster papers. Among them one stood out – in large capital letters filling up the page, it said, ‘LET THE DHARMA GUSH.’ There was no target date set for that strategic goal, because this is a job that is always underway, never done. Just like our practice.” – Sarah Giffin, Executive Director
