Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The foundation focuses primarily on awakening human consciousness as well as alleviating - and ultimately ending - the suffering created by the dysfunction of the egoic human mind. We accomplish this by making eckhart tolle's teachings available to communities in need, and by funding and collaborating with like-minded organizations, especially those who work with youth and students, incarcerated people, hospice patients and the elderly, animals and other vulnerable beings.

To share the teachings of Eckhart Tolle with communities and segments of the population that have little to no access to them.
