End-of-Year Fundraising Campaign
Successful Campaign Raises Funds for Improvements at Serenity Ridge
Ligmincha Institute is thrilled to announce the results of the end-of-year fundraising campaign. Generous contributions from sangha members and friends near and far resulted in raising $23,000, with a net income of $20,530 after fundraising expenses.
The money from this campaign will be specifically allocated to the following improvements at Serenity Ridge Retreat Center:
- Improvements to the six private rooms opposite the gompa, including new paint in all the rooms, new fixtures in the bathrooms, new bedding, new door curtains and new flooring.
- Improvements to the bunk bed rooms, including fresh paint and new bedspreads, new flooring treatment and new area rugs.
- Fresh paint for the first floor lounge by the women's dorm.
We are pleased to be able to make these improvements and very grateful to all of you who contributed. This funding will keep Ligmincha staff and volunteers busy over the winter and spring with improvements and updates. The goal is to have this work done in time for Summer Retreat.
