Support SHARANYA
Your contributions make all the difference as we work to keep this spirituality and unique spiritual expression viable in the world. Our devi mandir could not survive without your support and for that, we are deeply grateful.
In addition to coming to puja and being with us in community, there are many ways for you to be a part of our mission and vision. We have many ongoing projects fostered and facilitated by the generosity of our growing community. Read about our work below, and consider making a tax-deductible donation or volunteering a special talent or skill today.
SHARANYA in Action
Through SHARANYA in Action, we reach out to community-based and spiritual organizations in India, particularly to those helping impoverished women and children to promote right livelihood and literacy. We help by coordinating with other organizations to bring school supplies, volunteers, educational pamphlets and other much-needed items. Your tax-deductible donation of $11, $21, $51, $101 (all sacred numbers for the goddess) or more will go a long way toward helping us with these projects. Give whatever you wish...all contributions are graciously accepted and sincerely appreciated!
If you would like to be part of SHARANYA in Action or one of our other works in progress, please let us know in the comments of your online payment. While we can not earmark funds for specific overseas organizations, we are committed to following your wishes regarding the purchase of materials or other contributions to support our overall efforts.
Our Temple Project
Imagine a place in your community that is just for the Goddess. Not just for the Goddess, but for people who love and honor Her. A place that considers all those who enter as equals, and which serves as a meeting place for those who want a beautiful sanctuary for their most sacred circles and powerful rites, initiations, weddings, and other events.
We've been dreaming such a place, and in the summer of 2004, we set a goal of creating a public Goddess Temple in the San Francisco Bay Area. It will support itself through classes, affordable rental fees for public use, a non-profit storefront (we are a 501(3)c non-profit organization) selling hand-picked items from our pilgrimages around the world (as well as items by local artists), public events, and community donations.
Right now, we are in the midst of raising funds to establish the space, and are actively looking for suitable locations in the San Francisco Bay Area. If you would like to donate funds, time and expertise, or even a storefront space, please email us.
To donate now, please use our PayPal link below. Every little bit helps! Please consider a donation of $5, $25, $50, $100 (or more, if you like!). To donate specifically to the Temple Project, please say so in the comments.
You may also wish to help us with our ongoing community-building projects in the Bay Area. To see what work is being done and where we need the support and assistance of volunteers, please see our listing here:
