About Our Model (Dana-Inspired Giving)

This retreat is inspired by the practice of Dana, or generosity. While participation is supported through registration contributions, we also hold space for voluntary giving beyond the retreat fee.

Your registration helps make the retreat possible. Any additional offerings are optional and are received in the spirit of generosity rather than obligation.

Closing Dana Offering

At the end of the retreat, there will be an optional opportunity to offer additional support (Dana) towards scholarship access.

These offerings are:

Completely voluntary
Not tied to participation, access, or attendance
Given freely in appreciation, not as payment for services

Facilitator Support

All facilitators serve voluntarily in the spirit of Seva—selfless service—helping ensure that financial considerations do not prevent participation.

In the spirit of Dana, practice of freely offered generosity, facilitators may at their own discretion, create space during the event for participants who feel moved to offer contributions to them directly. These offerings are entirely voluntary, arise from personal intention, and are not required for participation.

Any such contributions are made independently between participants and facilitators. The organization does not solicit, collect, or administer these offerings.

The Board may, at its discretion, offer honoraria to facilitators in recognition of their time and contributions.
