Gifts
Following the Buddhist tradition of more than 2,500 years, Steve and Rosemary continue to teach retreats and offer their advice for free. The teachings of the Buddha (the Dhamma) are considered priceless and exist today due to the generosity of millions of people down through the centuries. There exists an interdependency between those who offer the teachings and those who receive them.
We thank you for considering helping Rosemary and Steve continue teaching and making the teachings understandable and accessible to people living in many countries around the world.
If you'd like to make a direct bank transfer, please email us at teachers@rosemary-steve.org. Some bank transfers are free if done properly. Alternatively, if you would like to support us through PayPal, the following information explains about making a single gift or monthly gifts.

Send a direct gift with your own PayPal account
If you already have a PayPal account and you wish to send just one gift now, then it's best to log on to your PayPal account and go to "Send Money". Put in "gifts@rosemary-steve.org" and the amount. You can send your own currency and it will be exchanged when received. Depending on which country you use Paypal, often there is a choice between "Purchase" or "Personal". Choose "Personal", then if you can, choose "Gift". Otherwise, choose "Others".
Giving a gift without a PayPal account
You do not have to create a PayPal account in order to send money this way. When you click the "Single gift" icon, you will be taken to the PayPal website where you will be able to make a gift to Steve & Rosemary.
Regular gifts each month
If you would like to support Steve & Rosemary each month with a PayPal subscription, please select the amount and then click the "Monthly gifts" icon. You will be taken to the PayPal website where you will be able to initiate the monthly gift. Your credit card will be automatically charged each month via PayPal until you cancel this monthly gift. If you wish to do a monthly gift and you do not have a PayPal account, you will need to create one on the PayPal website. It is not difficult, but let us know if you have any problems.
If the exact amount that you wish to give is not shown below in the "Gift options", just inform us and we can add it to the drop-down list. The list is currently in Australian $, but you don't need a PayPal account in Australian dollars, you can use an account in Euros, US dollars, etc. and the exchange will be done automatically.
