An Invitation to Be a Part of Something Very Important

The Mountain, entering its 4th decade, has been and will continue to be a truly transformational center. Having offered meaningful programs on leadership for peace, justice, environmental sustainability, and the arts to people of all ages, The Mountain has been a beacon of hope across the lifespan to over 120,000 people since its founding in 1979.

As much as The Mountain has accomplished, we know there is so much more to be done in order to continue to energize and equip people of all ages to be multipliers in their work for the common good.

This is an invitation to you to be a part of this work. The Mountain depends on donations for 25% of its annual income. These donations, large and small, come from people like you, who believe in our shared responsibilities to make the world better for all, assuring that all individuals experience their inherent worth and dignity.

Your donations help provide scholarships and support for:

  • Youth to attend The Mountain’s excellent Mountain camps
  • Young adults to participate in empowering Institutes for Social Change
  • Affordable pricing for a broad constituency of people who need our programs

Your gifts also help maintain this unique enterprise and all that it does for so many. Please learn about the many options you have for supporting The Mountain. These include Annual Memberships, The Endowment Fund, planned gifts and corporate matching programs.

Our invitation is sincere: we invite and need you to donate to The Mountain now. We believe W.E.B. DuBois said it best when he wrote "Now is the accepted time."

 Please RSVP to our invitation.
“Now is the accepted time, not tomorrow, not some more convenient season. It is today that our best work can be done and not some future day or future year. It is today that we fit ourselves for the greater usefulness of tomorrow. Today is the seed time, now are the hours of work, and tomorrow comes the harvest and the play-time.”
-W.E.B. DuBois
