Dear Ones,
  We need your support. The Philadelphia Meditation Center has incurred a number of unexpected expenses this year. Donations barely meet our operating costs.
At the Philadelphia Meditation Center the dharma is offered freely, not because it is worthless, but because it is priceless. To operate a meditation center, however, is not free. That is why we offer you the opportunity to financially support this noble endeavor.
  While our residential retreats are structured to cover their expenses, the Center itself and the events that are held there are totally dependent on the generosity of the participants and our supporters.
If you feel that our thrice weekly meditation sessions, dharma discussions, recorded dharma talks, weekend extended meditations, movie nights, weekend retreats, and dharma library are a worthwhile service, we ask that you become a supporting member of PMC. Membership offers not only discounts at various functions and unlimited use of the library, but also the knowledge that you are supporting the dharma in a very meaningful way.
Our suggested membership donation is $240 annually which can be paid monthly, quarterly or annually. Of course, we are grateful for contributions of any amount. PMC is an IRC 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
  Thank you.

  Sincerely,
  George Heckert, Director, The Philadelphia Meditation Center

With trusting heart a gift righteously obtained,
Placing faith that the fruit of action is great,
That gift, I say, will come to full fruition."  MN142.14
