Looking for a residence

UPDATE: A residence in Lower Allston has now been ​secured.

The process of looking for a residence in or around Boston is underway. A group of supporters who live in the Boston area have been asked by the Jeta Grove board to search for suitable locations to borrow or rent which will house the monks and become this summer’s ‘Boston Vihara’.

The period in question is roughly the four months from July – October 2013, although it could be the three months from roughly July 20 – October 20. If you know of any leads (or have a house or apartment in the Boston area you’d like to loan or rent to us for that time) or have any questions about this please contact us via the form on the Contact page.

 

Jeta Grove receives tax-exemption

The Jeta Grove board members are pleased to share the good news that Jeta Grove Foundation received its 501(c)(3) classification from the IRS on 14 December 2012. Jeta Grove Foundation has been classified as a Public Charity, so financial contributions are tax deductible for U.S. tax payers. The exemption status is retroactive ​to December 29, 2011 – so any donations that have been made to Jeta Grove after that day are tax deductible.

More information about Jeta Grove can be found on ​the Jeta Grove website.
