Listed below are items needed to help us achieve our mission. Please contact us if you are able to donate or purchase an item for Antahkarana Society International. (406-581-5963)
Endowment: Our biggest wish! Over time, interest from an endowment fund investment can fund new projects and pay for day-to-day and long term operations of the organization and overseas management of the Antahkarana projects. A gift to the endowment fund is invested and the interest used to fund projects and operations.
Our goal is to create a $10,000,0W00 endowment fund. Yes, that is large dream. Such an endowment would fund many new schools and pay the ongoing expenses of teachers, materials, food, uniforms and all the attendant expenses of housing and educating children.
There are thousands of children to be reached and such a fund would ensure that the work of Antahkarana Society continues in perpetuity. Our minimum commitment to each child is 10 to 12 years of education. There will be some who will go on to higher education and professional careers. If we are to save the culture we must bring the people into the modern era.
Donations to Operating Expenses: Donations earmarked for operating expenses are greatly appreciated.
Computer: We are greatly in need of a new laptop computer. Our six-year old Toshiba is still chugging but just barely. I am told my IPod has a larger hard drive than my computer!
Professional Camera and equipment: We are missing PR opportunities because the thousands of pictures I have taken that serve very well for on-line promotions and lecture presentations are unfortunately not of a high enough resolution to print well in newspapers and magazines.
Satellite phone: A satellite phone for use while traveling and trekking would provide a measure of security and safety on expeditions into remote areas.
Office supplies: To defray the costs of day-to-day operations we gladly accept donations of:.
Expedition Support: Each summer we make the trek into remote villages to work with the villagers and manage projects.
