Donate To Holden Village

Support The Village

Throughout Holden’s history, the Village has depended on financial support from people like you. 

Your gift helps people practice community both within the Village and in the greater world.  You help Holden Village welcome all people into the wilderness to form and renew their relationships with God, the earth, and each other.

Because of generous donors like you, we can provide:

  • Invigorating discussions with expert teaching faculty on topics including ecology, art, justice, theology, and more! 
  • Sessions with visiting musicians and artists
  • Top-notch programming such as Women’s Retreat, May Youth Weekends, and more!
  • Materials for our Art Studios and equipment for the Hike Haus
  • Comfortable beds for hundreds of Villagers each week
  • January term programming for college and seminary students
  • Stipends/salaries and benefits to the seasonal and long-term volunteers and employees whose skills, leadership, and hard work operate the historic, off-the-grid Village infrastructure and make the Holden experience possible   
  • Opportunities to visit for volunteers, guests, and all those who have yet to experience Holden Village!

It is expensive to operate a remote mountain Village, and guest fees cover only 60% of the cost of operating the Village. When you donate to Holden Village, your gift makes up the difference and sustains this one-of-a-kind place in the wilderness. Your support helps us expand welcome to those who have yet to visit.

Other Ways to Donate

October 2-6, 2024

Holden Village’s biggest annual fundraiser event is back for the fifth year! The all-online silent auction helps keep the daily operations and programs of the Village running.

The Jubilee Auction also gives you the opportunity to donate to specific needs and projects, such as new carpet and hard surface cleaning equipment for Housekeeping and a new-generation wood chipper for Operations.

No matter where you live, YOU can feel connected to the Village by participating in the Jubilee Auction. All proceeds support Holden Village, so you can enjoy bidding on fun items and experiences for yourself or as gifts, all while sustaining Holden’s mission.

Help raise funds by donating items and experiences! We’re accepting these donations through Sept. 5, 2024.
