Vajra Vidya Portland is sustained entirely by the generosity of our members and friends. By joining or donating to VVP, you are contributing to a unique resource in the Portland community for the study and practice of the authentic teachings of the Kagyu lineage. Membership dues and donations keep our center alive and flourishing, and this enables us to offer the Dharma to everyone. There are also many ways you can help support VVP with your time, energy, and abilities: Consider preparing a meal for a visiting teacher, caring for the shrine room, offering your artistic talents or technical skills where needed, or making an in-kind donation.
If membership interests you, any monthly contribution that you can manage comfortably would be welcome. Supporting membership is $35 per month. Joining at the Benefactor or Patron level provides even greater benefit to VVP. Please contact our membership coordinator at kay.sullivan@maine.edu with any questions about membership, including non-monetary support.
Supporter: $35 monthly / $105 quarterly / $420 annually
(Note: Amounts listed above for Supporter dues go into effect January 2026. PayPal payment options listed below will be updated then.)
Benefactor: $50 monthly / $150 quarterly / $600 annually
Patron: $100 monthly / $300 quarterly / $1,200 annually
A single annual dues payment made at the start of the year is the most helpful for our budgeting. If you prefer to pay monthly or quarterly, we can accept automatic payments through PayPal. Onetime donations are always appreciated. Please contact our treasurer at treasurer@portlandmainebuddhism.org with any questions about payment arrangements.
