In making its decision, the board shall consider, among other things, the fundraising support it has received as well as the organization’s overall current and projected fiscal needs and demands. Donors who wish to contribute to the fund may indicate their preferences when making their gifts. Sanshin Zen Community will strive to honor donor preferences but reserves the right to apply funds as needed. If you have any questions, please contact us.
