INVEST IN THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY

Why support CCR?

When you donate to the Centers for Contemplative Research worldwide, you provide essential support for our dedicated contemplatives and the maintenance of our Hermitages, as well as the growth of our scientific studies and the upkeep and building of new cabins on our land. Even a small gift makes a big difference.

Donations to CCR enable us to:

Support dedicated contemplatives

who have entered long-term retreat at Miyo Samten Ling Hermitage, the contemplative research observatory of CCR North America, as well as at Sita Tara Villa in Italy.

Renovate existing cabins

and build new cabins at Miyo Samten Ling to enable more highly-trained contemplatives to enter long-term retreat.

Maintain the operations

of CCR North America and enable us to assist the growth of CCR Europe and CCR Asia Pacific.

Your generous donations will impact each facet of our work.

We greatly appreciate your continuing support as a member of the global CCR community. Together, we will cultivate our expansive vision step-by-step, by tending to one another, tending to our minds, and tending to our world.
