Make a Gift

Establish yourself in a flow of generosity, giving without any concern whether it will return something back to you … Whether you are rich or poor, whether you are educated or not, you can always share a little bit of what you have.
—Swami Kripalu (1913–1981)

$1 Million Alfond Challenge

Your gift will be matched dollar for dollar by the Peter Alfond 25th Anniversary Challenge grant of $1 million, given in September 2008 by Peter Alfond to salute Kripalu’s 25 years in the Berkshires. In order to meet the challenge, 25% of gifts given need to come from new and increased gifts. We urge Kripalu guests who have never given to us to make their first gift, knowing that it will be matched dollar for dollar. Similarly, we ask our wonderful Kripalu donors to consider this challenge the perfect impetus to make a stretch gift that will be doubled in its impact.
