Scholarship

To further support the Buffalo Mindfulness Community mission statement to provide educational training to individuals in Mindfulness (Sati) and Loving-Kindness (Metta) we are offering financial support for a select number of individuals to attend a 7 day or longer retreat at the Insight Mediation Society in Barre, Massachusetts; Springwater Center in Springwater, NY; Vipassana Meditation Center in Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts; or Spring Rain Sangha retreats at Chapin Mill Retreat Center in the Batavia, NY area.  Qualification for a scholarship is simply to attend our Wednesday evening meditation on a fairly regular basis for a period of roughly three months and be in financial need.  Please send any inquires about the Scholarship Fund through the Contact Us menu of this website.
