Ways to Give
Donor Advised Funds (DAF)
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable savings account that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to easily support the Sivananda Yoga Farm.
Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)
A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) is a donation made to the Sivananda Yoga Farm directly from your retirement account. If you are over 72 years old, you are required to begin withdrawing funds each year from your retirement accounts. You can donate some of your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), maybe 10%, to support our work while also reducing your taxable income for the year. Therefore, you can receive a tax benefit from your charitable contribution even if you do not itemize deductions.
Corporate Matching
Multiply the blessings of the gifts you give! Many companies offer matching gift programs to encourage employees to contribute to charitable organizations. There are typically two ways you can submit a matching gift: through your company’s online matching gift portal or through a printed form. If you’re not sure whether your employer matches gifts, just email us and ask. We’re also happy to help you complete the process or to answer any questions you may have.
Wire Transfer
Giving directly between banks is also a great way to support the Sivananda Yoga Farm. To set up a wire transfer to Sivananda Yoga Farm’s bank account, contact us at [email protected] to confirm account details.
Memorial Gift
Tribute donations can be made in honor or memory of a loved one, friend or colleague. These gifts allow donors to express their appreciation or sympathy, while supporting a cause that is important to them. You can make a gift in honor or in memory of someone you know through our online form by sharing their name in the “What inspired this gift?” section. For more information about memorial giving, you can also contact us at [email protected]
Planned Giving (Estate Gift Planning)
Donors can include the Sivananda Yoga Farm in their estate plan by naming the Sivananda Yoga Farm as a beneficiary of their Will, Trust, IRA, Investment Account, Life Insurance policy etc. These gifts fund an endowment, managed by the Sivananda Yoga Farm, which was established to provide for the Sivananda Yoga Farm’s future.

Help Us Renew the Yoga Farm — One Cabin at a Time
For more than 50 years, the Sivananda Ashram Yoga Farm has been a sacred sanctuary for seekers from around the world — a place to breathe, heal, study, and reconnect with the deepest parts of ourselves.
Today, we humbly invite your support as we renew the comfort, beauty, and sustainability of this spiritual home.
Your generosity directly supports two essential projects:
- Replacing the Underfloor Heating System in the Yoga Hall
Thousands of students have practiced asanas, meditated, and studied in this hall. The original heating system has served long and well, but it is now showing clear signs of age.
A new system will ensure steady warmth and comfort for all who practice here — especially during winter retreats.
Estimated Cost: $15,000
- Rebuilding the Original Tent Cabins at Siva Hill
For 35 years, the seven tent cabins nestled at the base of sacred Siva Hill have welcomed guests through all seasons of transformation. Despite numerous repairs — including woodpecker “renovations” — the time has come for a full renewal.
We aim to rebuild at least five of these cabins, transforming them into year-round, insulated, comfortable spaces with private bathrooms.
Costs per cabin:
- Permits & redesign: $14,000
- Construction (materials & labor): $65,000
- Contingency (15%): $11,850
- Total per cabin: $90,850
Each cabin can be lovingly sponsored by up to three donors, and your names will be displayed in gratitude — a lasting reminder of your support for future generations of guests, residents, and spiritual seekers. If you can’t afford to sponsor an entire cabin, any amount will help.
Please choose the cabin you wish to sponsor:
- #4 Harmony
- #5 Peace
- #6 Prosperity
- #7 Purity
- #8 Truth
Why This Matters
In a world marked by uncertainty and imbalance, resilient spiritual communities like the Yoga Farm offer a vital alternative: a place where people can live simply, breathe deeply, and reconnect with inner peace.
By supporting these upgrades, you’re helping to create a beautiful, safe, and serene environment that nurtures deep rest, clarity, and spiritual renewal for all who come here seeking healing.
Thank you for helping us carry this mission forward — one warm hall and one peaceful cabin at a time.
With gratitude,
Swami Sitaramananda and the Yoga Farm Volunteers
