How You Can Help

AUM 2013 aims to contribute to the inner evolution of our society and its members at a time of great need and greater opportunity. Like many projects responding to an inward call, this work is done voluntarily and as a service. The outcome of this AUM depends on inner conditions as well as outer support.

We invite your support for this seminal work, especially for two AUM projects:

1. Native American scholarships: AUM 2013 is privileged to have some remarkable Native American representatives speaking and contributing to the conference. We want to enable other Native Americans to attend—for example, local students from the university in Ashland. We need AUM scholarships to support their participation. Since most of them will be commuters, and since AUM is already subsidizing them in part, your donation of only $60 will enable another Native American student to attend.
   
   
2. AUM documentary: This AUM has elements which can model integral soul work elsewhere in this country and in other national societies. It aims also to catalyze implementation of the International Zone in the Auroville community. To make available an engaging record of this event, an excellent German filmmaker who specializes in this kind of work has offered to create a documentary of the AUM in exchange only for airfare and hotel. The total needed is about $2,000. (Donors would get their own copy of the film). The AUM planners think this offer is a wonderful opportunity in so many ways.

The whole AUM is a careful balancing of energies. If you want to help secure its outcome, your unspecified donation is also most welcome too!
