Temple Friend
Become a Temple Friend!

You can help Dharma to flourish in Northern California by making a monthly offering for one year.

All of our Buddhist Centers are non-profit organizations and most of our staff are volunteers. We mainly depend on regular donations from Temple Friends for our running costs, as well as to build for the future.

If you are not currently a Temple Friend, please consider becoming one. We simply ask you to commit to offering a monthly credit-card donation of $65 (or more) for individuals for one calendar year. Your monthly donation will ensure that classes throughout Northern California will continue to help you, your friends and many others find greater inner peace.

What are the benefits?

Apart from helping meditation classes to flourish in your area, you receive free weekly classes and wonderful discounts and can end up saving lots of money!

• Free General Program classes
• Free day courses
• 20% discount on all empowerments and retreats hosted by Saraha Buddhist Center

(If you pay for a year in advance, you receive the benefit of 12 months for the price of 11. This amounts to $715).

Your monthly donation will go to your own nearest Center and a portion of your contributions is tax-deductible. Please contact your nearest Center for more information.
