General Support to Sustain the Mission
as renunciates walking the path of Dhamma, monks rely upon the material support of lay people to meet their basic needs. This frees monks’ time and energy to study, practice, embody, and share the wisdom of Buddhism with these supportive lay people whose personal spiritual practice can’t always take precedence amidst the time-consuming responsibilities that comprise a householder’s lifestyle.
In addition to this general dynamic of exchanging material for spiritual support that is characteristic of the lifestyle of all Buddhist monks, the Wisdom Age Initiative’s charitable projects–more specifically–involve curating educational material with the aid of tech hardware & software, paying professionals to ensure high quality output, running complex, live events and retreats, traveling internationally, and many more cost-incurring realities that make operations possible.
If you would like to support our spiritual path, help us operate more sustainably, and deepen the impact our work makes on the world, you can make a one-time or recurring donation via the Givebutter form or the buttons below. Any amount is deeply appreciated and will be used with utmost consideration and mindfulness. For U.S. donors, please note that donations are fully tax deductible (Tax ID# : 33-3355211).
Give the Gift of Wisdom
as of March 2025, Wisdom Age Initiative has given away just shy of 20,000 free books to those who were able to visit the meditation centers where they have visited. This was made possible by the support of many generous donors who helped cover over 20 rounds of printing and shipping costs. To help more people access this wisdom or to find out more information, click the button below to access a GoFundMe campaign dedicated to this cause. International donations accepted.
