Since the teachings are priceless, they are offered freely.
Considering the value of the teachings and how the practice brings such benefit to our lives
out of gratitude and and the compassionate desire to share them with others,
we offer dana: a spontaneous act of generosity.
Even so people ask - But how much?
Running Costs are growing all the time and the centre needs donations to cover extra costs, support those on low income and further development. This means raising the equivalent of £45 per person per night, that's an extra £25 on top of your deposit of £20.
Whatever you give is greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
Donating
A Regular Donation
We depend very much on these gifts to complete all our constructions, renovations and other projects.
The PayPal button, which can be used to make a one off donation, also makes it very simple to give regularly on an ongoing basis by ticking the 'Make this recurring (monthly)' box in PayPal.
Even a small donation of a £1 a week is a worthy gift.
Thank you.
Your generous donations allow us to continue to offer these teachings to others.
Bank Transfers
It is, of course, still possible to make donations via Internet Banking.
Unfortunately because bank details have been used by thieves, for bank details you will need to contact the Treasurer:
Richard Benjamin [email protected]
When using Internet Banking, please make sure you enter your surname and the retreat you are booking for in advice to payee.
And please send an email confirming your deposit or donation to: [email protected]
This would be really helpful. Many thanks.
Cheques
You can also pay by cheque, payable to Satipanya Buddhist Trust.
Bank Mandates
You may prefer to make a regular donation with a Standing Order.

Legacies/Wills:
Every legacy, no matter what value, is vital and will make a real difference to the fund raising activities of the Satipanya Buddhist Trust.
Your Will is probably one of the most important documents you will - ever sign. It is the only way you can make your intentions crystal clear. Simply tell your professional advisor how much you wish to leave to the Trust. He/she will then be able to advise you on the most beneficial method and help you complete a Codicil.
If you are making your own Will, you will need to add a paragraph or a simple document as a 'Codicil', stating your intentions, making sure to add the full name, charity number and address of the Trust. You must sign it and it must be witnessed and signed by two other people at the same time. The two witnesses cannot in any way be beneficiaries to your Will.
Do remember that any legacy to the Trust will be tax free and you will know that you will be supporting a Buddhist Meditation Centre, dedicated to the promulgation of Buddha Dhamma.
If you decide to leave a legacy please contact our Treasurer.
