The Practice of Generosity 

The relationship between a sangha and its operational and financial needs are interdependent. We deeply appreciate your consideration of both financial and volunteer support. We offer Buddhist teachings, study opportunities and practice opportunities freely, thanks to the generous support of many. 

Each person in the sangha offering his or her own talents and capabilities is like a single arm of Avalokitesvara. When the members of the sangha work in unison, it can be as if the sangha, like Avalokitesvara, has a thousand arms that reach out to all points of the compass to form a never-ending circle.
 
There are three essential ways to give to Dharma Refuge.

1. Become a Member
2. Give a One-Time Gift
3. Offer your time and talents by volunteering! Email the Assistant to the Spiritual Director, Ali Bartell, for current opportunities. 

​As always, we welcome all who wish to join us as a member. No one is turned away for an inability to provide support. Our personal financial story is always changing, and simply put, we take turns being the supporter and supported.
