GENEROSITY
Support SunDo's mission of spreading brightness for a healthier happier society. Your donation goes toward the development of a healing retreat center in Vermont, USA and outreach for other SunDo Centers around the world. Practicing SunDo postures, breathwork and meditation has helped thousands of people achieve a better way of life.
Please donate to our CURRENT 2021 fundraising goal of $32,000. For over 22 years, the SunDo Retreat Center has been a place that revitalizes and heals the spirit. Help us do more in the coming year with a new kitchen and dining hall for retreats in Vermont. With our smaller fundraisers plus larger matching donations, we believe this is possible!

Progress and purpose
Goodbye 2020
As we look back at the past year, we realize how important the SunDo Retreat Center is to our practice community. SunDo International is proud to offer a place for all people seeking a healthier, happier life. We are a community that is fully dedicated to completing the new kitchen dining hall building at the Retreat Center in 2021.
This facility is projected to greatly increase membership, restoring our revenue engine and generating the funds needed to support future SunDo retreats and holistic health programs.

Community Building & Support
SunDo broke ground in the summer of 2018. Three years later, we are planning a scheduled completion date in 2021. You can have a huge impact in supporting this project and our community through a charitable contribution of any size. It is the community that will build this Retreat Center and it is the community that will benefit from the utility and longevity of our new kitchen and dining hall building.

The generosity of members and friends has brought us closer to creating a new building for SunDo retreat guests. The facility also includes a main office and bathrooms.
So many more people who come to stay at the Retreat Center, will have access to better accommodations and be able to learn SunDo practice for healing of the body, mind and spirit. Thanks to you, we are even closer to spreading more brightness for a healthier and happier society! |
