Contributions

The existence of our centre and our ability to bring accomplished teachers to Nelson is absolutely dependent on contributions from from those who gain benefit from these activities.

We have significant costs to meet in providing the facilities for KCL’s activities including providing and maintaining our dedicated practice space (gompa), flying teachers to Nelson, and making contributions to Lama Assi.

So please carefully consider what you are able to offer - your contributions are greatly appreciated and used very carefully to pay essential costs. This is also an opportunity to practice generosity, which is essential for progress on this path. However, no one should ever feel excluded for financial reason and all are very welcome.

There is a donation box available at KCL, you may also pay donations directly into our bank account (details below). Let us know if you need a receipt for tax purposes as all donations are tax deductable. We are very happy to receive any contributions, large or small.

Regular Contributions

You can support KCL Nelson by making regular monthly payments, or ad hoc payments as you are able to. For regular practitioners, it is helpful if you set up an automatic payment from your own bank account.
