2026 BCA NCM & NW Convention - Sponsorships - Seattle Betsuin Buddhist Temple

Sponsorships / Ads / Booster Donations

Annual conferences have served as meaningful events for many generations. Sharing the Dharma and interacting with ministers, leaders, and Sangha friends strengthens ties among all. We greatly appreciate you considering a donation to continue this tradition.
It will come as no surprise that expenses for hosting in-person BCA/temple gatherings continue to increase every year. In an effort to keep registration fees at an affordable level, the Northwest District is asking for monetary donations from individuals who are able to contribute to this event.

In order to conserve resources, future NW District Conference in-person gatherings will be held every other year (biennially), with online conferences presented in between. All donations that exceed the convention’s total expenses will be placed into an account and carried over for use at the next biennial in-person event.

Please feel free to contribute to more than one workshop, activity or sponsorship. Donors will be recognized in the tiered categories based on total donations. Donors will be featured on the convention website, in the program, onscreen during the banquet, and in print throughout the hotel.
