General Contribution to Deer Park Monastery
To help cover the costs of running, renovating, and upkeep of the monastery.

Love and Understanding Program in Vietnam
Donations to the Love and Understanding Program offer material and spiritual support to hundreds of communities in the poorest areas of Vietnam where education, development, social services and relief work are in great need to ensure healthy and happy lives for all.

Council Ridge Project
We need your help to save the western ridge of Deer Park Monastery and the adjacent lands around the monastery before it is sold to developers. This could greatly affect the serenity of the protected valley and ultimately, influence our relationship to the land and to our practice (no more sounds of the temple bell, no more hikes for instances).

Deer Park Plant Sangha
We are aware that without the support and energy of the land ancestors: the rocks, the hawks, the soil, the coyotes, the sage, and the oaks, it would not be possible for us to live and practice on this land today.

Go Solar!
Deer Park has made the commitment to power our monastery with 100% solar energy.
