Call for Donations 2026
2026 is a special year for the Zenith Institute, which is inseparable from its most important annual event, our beloved Sufi Summer Camp. Since there will be no regular summer camp in 2026, we will also lose our main source of income for this year.
However, there are a number of fixed costs that we still have to cover. These include the costs for the warehouse where our large meditation tent and many other items from Campra are stored. There are also costs for finding a location, the office, insurance, taxes, the website, and much more. This adds up to around CHF 16’500.
We expect to generate approximately CHF 2’000 in revenue from membership fees & recurring donations. The community camp in Pfarrkeßlar and the trip to Taizé are planned without financial gain for Zenith, to be as accessible as possible. This leaves a shortfall of CHF 14’500 in our funds.
Our ambitious goal is to close this gap through donations. Therefore, we kindly ask you to support our joint idea financially with your donation. No matter how large or small your donation may be, it will help us make the transition to a new location for our beloved camps possible.
Please help securing the camp’s future by donating now!
We’ve already received CHF 3’388.51 this year, this leaves CHF 11’111.49 left for us to reach our goal. Thanks to all who have already donated! We’ll keep this progress bar updated throughout the year.
Donations via bank transfer come with the least fees for us. You can also use the Donorbox, which is found further below. We’re a non-profit organisation, but not a charity, and unfortunately can’t issue tax-deducatable donation recipts.
