2021 fall fund drive
Where We Are Now
Our nearly-finished kitchen and dining hall building has given us the ability to serve guests with healthy foods, provide them with comfortable spaces and enable many more people to benefit from SunDo practice. Where We Are Going SunDo International is now launching its 2021 Fall Fund Drive to purchase a new boiler for the kitchen & dining hall building at the Vermont Retreat Center. The building has been relying on heat from a wood burning stove, which will continue to be used, but with an additional boiler, the building will gain a much more reliable heat source throughout the winter. SunDo has begun its fundraising drive to purchase a new boiler for $7500. The drive already got a boost this past August thanks to SunDo members, Teresa Lenzen and Christine Ucich, who donated a combined amount of $1700.
The Road Ahead With retreats happening this fall and winter, the building will see significant usage by the SunDo community. In addition, the building now houses a caretaker who is currently providing maintenance services at the retreat center. A new boiler should bestow many decades of service to the kitchen & dining hall so it is a very worthwhile investment! |
SunDo's Fall Fund Drive is ready for your donations to raise a total of $7500 by Friday, October 15, 2021. Please consider making a contribution to this important cause. A long-term heating solution in a fully winterized kitchen & dining hall ensures healthy retreats happening at our Vermont Retreat Center for many, many years to come.
