Planned Giving – Contribute to a Legacy of Compassion

“Donating to and supporting a spiritual lineage is not just an act of generosity but a sacred offering of merit, which will endure and multiply as long as the spiritual lineage remains.”

-Tana Dungsey Rinpoche

Planned Giving is a great way to leave a lasting legacy aligned with your values and spiritual beliefs. A gift to Rinpoche and the Tana Monastery ensures the continuation of their dharmic activities as well as helping to preserve the dharma and the Yelpa Kagyu lineage for generations to come.

Tana Yelpa Legacy Community

The Tana Yelpa Foundation is pleased to introduce the Tana Yelpa Legacy Community, created to honor those who have named TYF as a beneficiary of any charitable contributions—whether through a Will, estate plan, life insurance policy, RMD, DAF, or other forms of planned giving.

By naming TYF as a beneficiary of any of your assets, you become a member of the Tana Yelpa Legacy Community and receive all associated benefits.

This meaningful act of generosity deepens your personal connection to Rinpoche’s activity and the Tana Yelpa Monastery. Together, we can help ensure that the Yelpa Kagyu lineage and teachings continue to flourish for generations to come.

Please contact us at for inquiries or questions regarding Planned Giving.

Testimonials

“I want to provide as much as I can afford for the benefit of Tana Yelpa’s work. Naming TYF as the beneficiary of one of my mutual funds gives me the flexibility of having a reserve for myself while alive and making a contribution upon my death. I simply changed the beneficiary on my account’s website.”

“I don’t have children, and it was easy as 1-2-3 to add TYF as a beneficiary on my bank account.”

“With my broker’s advice, the easiest thing for us to do was to do a monthly transfer directly from our IRA to TYF. Since we don’t itemize, we can count that money as part of our Required Monthly Distribution (RMD). Our broker contacted TYF to make sure the checks were correctly transferred each month. We are happy to help Tana Rinpoche!”

There are many options for making the Tana Yelpa Foundation the beneficiary of your bequests. As always, it is best to talk with your Broker, Financial Advisor, or Estate Attorney, for the best advice and best option for your situation.
