Become a supporter of donation-based retreats for young adults...

We are inviting all those who care about the accessibility of Buddhist practice to join our Supporting Sangha by contributing to Dharma Gates each month.

Our Supporting Sangha will include anyone who commits to making a donation (of any size) to Dharma Gates on a monthly basis. Members of our Supporting Sangha will also be invited to come together on Zoom every six months to take a deep dive into what we've been up to and offer input on our direction moving forward.

There is no minimum monthly donation to be involved. Giving a dollar a month is just fine - it can be a symbol of your support and a sign that you believe this is a project that should be in the world.

Our goal is to offer four completely donation-based introductory meditation retreats per year in partnership with a variety of Buddhist lineages beginning in 2023.

Our retreats offer participants an open space to explore their relationship with the variety of Buddhist traditions, build community with other young practitioners, and experience the benefits of silent retreat in their own hearts and minds. Our events are designed to be gateways into the tradition, offering clear routes to deeper engagement for those who are called farther.

We invite you to contribute to this vision in accordance with your means and the value you believe these offerings have for others.
