Giving Tuesday 2020

Supporting a holistic and meaningful education rooted in Bhakti for the benefit of current and future generations. 

This Giving Tuesday finds us In a year unlike any other. The serious demands of safely operating school within the COVID-19 pandemic has required significant investments in facilities, personnel, technology, and supplies. To date, we have spent close to $20,000 to ensure students and teachers are in a school environment that is as safe as possible. Your contribution goes directly toward offsetting the costs of:

• Air system modifications and maintenance.
• Classroom re-designs and barrier installations.
• Enhanced daily sanitization of all classroom spaces.
• Systems for daily health screenings and monitoring.
• Equipment and software to support simultaneous distance learning.

Join together today in supporting Bhaktivedanta Academy’s mission to provide children the opportunity to grow to their highest potential — academically, socially, emotionally, and physically — all the while developing their spiritual identities in a nurturing and positive environment.

Bhaktivedanta Academy is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. All donations are tax deductible.
