Giving Tuesday 2025

YOUR DONATIONS help make

a WORLD OF PEACE!!!

Giving Tuesday is a gift to all of us – donors and receivers

It is an example of what Sunray calls the Cycle of Reciprocity. The relationship between humans and the planet is an example of the Cycle of Reciprocity.   We depend upon the earth for our lives – the water we drink, the food we eat, the beauty all around us, and so much more.  In appreciation for all of that it is our duty to care for the planet.

 This year we ask you to help us raise $50,000 to support four aspects of our mission.   

Peacekeeper Teachings 

Peacekeeper Teachings offer skills by which students of all ages learn to live in peace with themselves, their families, communities and the world. Over the decades that Sunray has offered these teachings more than 1,000 people have taken the training in 20 countries as diverse as Scotland, Türkiye, Peru, Nepal Costa Rica, Rwanda and Iceland. 

United Nations 

At the UN Sunray provides leadership of the NGO Committee on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, with a strong focus on support of Indigenous Women. In 1992 Sunray achieved recognition by the UN and became an accredited non-governmental organization (NGO) in association with the UN Department of Global Communications (DGC). Sunray’s activities help advance three of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. 

Annual Elders & Youth Gathering 

In July 2026 we will celebrate our 42nd Annual Native American Elders and Youth Gathering. This beloved event brings together Indigenous Elders and Wisdom Keepers, youth, environmental leaders, and scientists to share their understanding and predictions about the well-being of this planet.

Seeds of Good Food and Relationships

Indigenous Wisdom Keepers remind us of the importance of growing our own food communally so that we may all thrive. This summer we will initiate a program of growing food at the Sunray Peace Village while teaching these skills to neighbors and students. 

“The seeds of good food are also the seeds of good relationship…”        -Venerable Dhyani Ywahoo   

Your Giving Tuesday gift will help Sunray expand this success.

TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A WORLD OF PEACE AND BALANCE
