Dhamma Greetings to everyone. This summer, 2008, a Kitchen/Dining Hall and
Community Building for everyone will come under construction for everyone to use very soon.
Help is needed from whoever
can assist. The building will be a post and beam building and we will begin
before the end of this July. This is going to be a
great place for fireside Dhamma talks, a main dining hall with a very functional kitchen.
Support is needed and it is hoped that you will support this project.

When a person donates to a Buddhist Meditation Center, they are giving an
offering or, DANA, as it is traditionally called, to the entire World Sangha of the Buddha. Sangha means all the monks and nuns of all Buddhist
Traditions who work to preserve and teach the Buddha Dhamma.
There are several ways to help support Venerable Bhante Vimalaramsi, Rev. Sister
Khema, and other monastics and yogis who attend the center at Dhamma Sukha and provide you
with the teachings.
FOR OPTIONAL WAYS TO GIVE SUPPORT
1. For those inside or outside of the United States, one can offer
support via our PayPal account online. When notification arrives to
the center, then a receipt will then be forwarded to you. Support given by
PayPal can be designated for a specific purpose or for the overall needs of the
center. Donations support building the center, general operations/maintenance,
and provide requisites for the monastics. The Four Requisites are Food, Housing, Clothing, and Medicine.

TO DONATE THROUGH PAYPAL online:
2. If you are inside the United States, another option for
you is to go through
www.networkforgood.org .
In the keyword box on the opening page, type in the word "Dhamma"
and it should take you
directly too "United International Buddha
Dhamma Society" This is the supporting organization for Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center. Network for Good will provide you with a
receipt, and they will provide the center with records each month along with a check for
received donations. Network for Good is a wonderful supportive organization
which helps to get the word out about Charitable Works. Please pass the
word to other organizations to use them.
3. Optional Ways to give Long-term
Support.
4. If you wish to send in a donation by check please write check to
"United international Buddha Dhamma Society" OR just
"UIBDS"
and mail it to :
Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center
Anathapindika's Park
RR1, Box 100
Annapolis, MO 63620
- Another way to help with operational expenses is to mail a
gift card or
a debit card for Walmart, Lowes Building Supplies, or Office Max. These are
the three main stores in our area who offer this kind of option. There is also a
Sam's Club that offers a similar optional card system. Some people
have purchased the card and mailed it to us at Dhamma Sukha Meditation
Center, RR 1 Box 100, Annapolis, MO 63620.
This has helped in the past with operational expenses during the Rains
Retreat and while the weather is good, it helps with building too.
- If you want to come in to join in the fun this summer of meditation
training, helping with the building, painting, creating new art decorations,
let Sister Khema know and you will be more than welcome to come in and camp
and join in this project. You can also make arrangements to come in for a
weekend to help out.
If you have any questions about making a donation or wish to set up a
different arrangement for giving or monthly or quarterly commitments,
please contact
sisterkhema@dhammasukha.org
Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu! ( a great Welldone!) to everyone who helps to get the
word out about this wonderful Dhamma that is setting so many people free now and
bringing happiness back into their lives.
Metta and smiles.
Sister Khema
