Membership
Green River Zen Center survives and thrives only through the help of its paying members. This financial support makes possible a lively schedule of meditation, retreats of varying lengths, classes and workshops, private study with teachers, training in Priest and Teacher paths, stipends for founding teachers, and meaningful celebrations of life’s milestones and rites of passage.
Membership is suggested at $40.00 per month, however, if you make any monthly financial commitment that fits your budget we consider you a member. If you are able, we encourage you to offer more to help keep program fees low. If money is tight, we invite you to please commit to whatever you are able. We are grateful for ALL members equally, regardless of the amount offered.
Benefits Include:
Membership commitments are usually paid monthly. If this does not work for you, let us know and we will gladly make accomodations.
Three Payment Options:
1. Check to Green River Zen Center Inc. PO Box 247, Montague, MA 01351. If using a check, note in the memo that the funds are for Membership.
2. Online banking bill payment. If you are setting up an online bank payment use your name as the account # and your own phone number. Online banking offers the convenience of creating automatic monthly payments and the ability for you to make adjustments at any time.
3. Bank transfer. For information, contact Mary O’Connor, GRZC Treasurer: 413-427-3069 or [email protected]
These options ensure that all of the money for membership goes to GRZC and not to fees for vendors such as PayPal.
Membership payments to GRZC are tax deductible. For our tax ID number contact Mary O'Connor: [email protected].
For all other questions related to membership contact Lily Myokan Perkins: [email protected].
