Within the next week or two Maggasekha will put out a video with it’s Board Treasurer, Anthony Tucker-Valdes, going over all things Dana and donation wise. As we are now in full gear in terms of looking for an apartment/rental to create the first Maggasekha Vihara in Denver, it was time to post another update to where we are at in terms of dana SPECIFICALLY given for monthly rental.
Now that Maggasekha is an official 501c3, we can offer receipts for tax purposes with all donations.
We are conservatively (with more offered but not clarified) at around $1000 in monthly donations specifically and only earmarked for rent. The original goal was set around $1500 to give some leeway in terms of rental price but also to cover basic bills.
We are doing pretty good for a small organization, however the goal is eventually as Maggasekha grows, to be able to support a larger apartment or smaller house so that others can come and ordain and the Maggasekha monastic sangha can grow.
Good news Bhante! Glad we are able to help in a small way for now to fulfill your targets.
