This has been an extraordinary year for those who have been inspired by the work of Stan and Christina Grof. Saddened, as we were, by Christina’s sudden death, our community has also given birth to the Stanislav and Christina Grof Foundation.
With the world facing so many threats right now—from violence, racism, terrorism, and torture to fundamentalism and fear, as well as the ecological crisis—this is the perfect moment for a foundation that could help people realize there is another way.
Our vision is to bring the work of Stan and Christina—about the roots of suffering and violence as well as the transformative potential of deep inner work—into greater awareness. We want to help all people have access to safe and powerful means of inner transformation.
Even though the Grof Foundation is just two months old, we have already experienced an outpouring of warm wishes, ideas, and proposals. And yet, like every newborn, we need more than love and good intentions in order to get a good start in life.
That’s why we are writing to you now ... to ask if you can help support the Grof Foundation at this critical time. And, yes, we mean financially.
The Foundation, run almost entirely by volunteers, needs support to build basic infrastructure and to kick start some of the wonderful projects already proposed, including the creation of a comprehensive online archive of Stan and Christina’s work and improving our response times to people in spiritual emergency.
And for the limited time of this campaign ... you can become a Grof Foundation founder. Every person who gives $100 or more will be recognized on our website (if you wish) as one of our Founding Contributors.
(If you are US taxpayer, note that the Grof Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization, so your donation is tax deductible.)
Please know that your donation in any amount will make a significant difference—both practically and spiritually—in helping the Grof Foundation get off to a great start. Your support will directly help people find safe and powerful means to heal and transform themselves ... and our planet.
Whether or not you yourself become a Founding Contributor, please consider forwarding this mail to anyone who might be interested and sharing the campaign page (at the link above) on social media using the buttons on the page. Thanks for all your interest and engagement.
In gratitude,
The Grof Foundation Launch Committee
