ongoing financial support. If insight meditation is of value
to you, and you would like to support the Center’s
work, please consider becoming

Annual Gifts
Each fall, CIMC conducts a major fund
drive to help meet our operating expenses. Many members
(and nonmembers) make a special donation at this time or
at other times during the year, such as by donating now through Network for Good Others contribute by finding
sponsors and participating in our annual fundraising Sit-a-thon. Building Fund
From time to time, we launch special
efforts to raise money to help us maintain and/or improve
our facilities. Donations made at other times can also be
earmarked for the Building Fund.
Company-Matching Gifts
Some companies offer matching gifts
for employees who donate to nonprofit organizations. Please
check with your employer to see if they will match your
gift to CIMC.
Planned Giving

reviewing your financial plan. Planned gifts can be organized
through bequests, life insurance, retirement plans, and
appreciated stock. If you would like more information on
planned giving, please contact

The CIMC Endowment Fund
The CIMC Endowment Fund exemplifies our commitment to preserving the values and
goals of Cambridge Insight Meditation Center for generations to come. The endowment permits donors to create a legacy of support that will assist in
underwriting current programs and help to ensure the future strength of CIMC so that it continues to prosper and maintain its prominence as a leading Western center for meditative
practice. All donations are encouraged and valued as expressions of dana that will preserve
CIMC and the dharma for future generations.
Funds contributed to the endowment are invested prudently, in consultation with
experienced financial advisors, in instruments designed to yield additional annual income
to support CIMC programs. For more information, download our endowment brochure (PDF).
