New York Insight 2010 Scholarship Drive
Support NYIMC’s Second Annual Scholarship Drive
Our goal is to continue to remove the barriers to practice. Help us support our community and maintain our extraordinary policy:
No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
We are happy to share that last year we raised $3,760 and we financially assisted 94 individuals in their pursuit of Dharma teachings.
We’re asking the members of our sangha to help New York Insight ensure that all those who wish to receive the teachings may do so regardless of their ability to pay.
Please Support New York Insight Meditation Center’s Second Annual Scholarship Drive.
We hope to double both the money we raise and the individuals we support in 2010.

Read what scholarship recipients have said about the program.....
“My experience at NYI has been invaluable. Meditating on a consistent basis had cleared my brain and opened me up to possibilities. The scholarship fund has given me the opportunity to attend workshops I would not have been able to attend because of my limited income. Once I become gainfully employed, I intend to support the scholarship fund.”
“At first I was reluctant to ask for financial assistance, but when I did ask, the help I got was so generous and done with such grace that my sense of shame was chipped away. The classes and the teachers have worked miracles in my life, particularly in helping me maintain a deep sense of peace within difficult relationships. Attendance at the Center has called me to remember who I am, what I am here for, and has altered my perception of all things.”
“Receiving a New York Insight scholarship renewed my strength and opened my heart to life. Attending an event I could not afford lifted my spirits and transformed my outlook on life. I was able to connect with others when I felt so alone and learned how other people were finding the strength to deal with life’s adversities. I want to return this precious act of generosity by contributing to the scholarship fund because I know it transforms lives.”
