Support 

 

Zen communities rely on the generosity of their supporters. This support is critical for the continuation of the Center. At the most basic level we are all connected and interdependent. Giving is integral to the path of practice and leads us to the realization of our deep bond with one another and all living beings.
 To support the Center and it's activities with a tax-deductible donation, send your contribution to: Prairie Zen Center  515 S. Prospect, Champaign, IL 61820-5043.

 

You may also donate to PZC via the Internet. Click on to use your credit card or Paypal account. Note that there is a small service charge deducted by PayPal from online donations.

 

The Prairie Zen Center can be included among your bequests. These bequests can be for general financial needs or you can specify how the bequest will be used, such as capital improvement and specific projects, outreach programs and so forth. For more information about this way to support practice, please contact us by phone, mail or via the Information Request page on this site.
