On December 22, 2024, Hozan Alan Senauke, founder and director of the Clear View Project, died, a year after having suffered a cardiac arrest. During that year, while he was able to return home and resume some of his work in the world, Hozan Alan never fully recovered. With his passing, Clear View Project is no longer taking donations.

If you would like to contribute to another similar organization aligned with the mission of Clear View, please consider Hozan Alan’s long time collaborators, the International Network of Engaged Buddhists, based in Thailand. If you want to contribute somewhere and you need your donation to be tax exempt, please consider the US based Buddhist Global Relief, which is headed by a good friend of Hozan Alan’s, Bhikkhu Bodhi.

The Clear View Project provides Buddhist-based resources for relief and social change, promotes dialogue on issues of socially engaged Buddhism, and supports communities in need, internationally and within the United States.

Our vision reflects the Buddha’s view of dependent origination, that life on this planet is contingent on the collective action and understanding of each of us. The Buddha’s moral teachings can be expressed in a single great vow: not to live ones life at the expense of other life.

In line with what the Buddha called the “four requisites” — food, shelter, clothing, and medicine — we support the dispossessed — children, the poor, prisoners, and other oppressed peoples — in their quest for survival with dignity.

We will feed those who are hungry, heal those who are ill, and provide spiritual tools of transformation for self and society.
