Gifting is at the center of Burning Man’s principles and its culture of self-expression and participation. We are deeply grateful for the abundant contributions of volunteer time and financial donations which are so essential to fulfilling our mission. We strive to recognize gifts of all kinds directly, and to honor the necessity of these gifts. Burning Man would not exist without this generosity.
We hold numerous events throughout the year to celebrate the role of gifting in our culture, and to honor those who give. In December 2014, we held a community panel discussion on Gifting at Burning Man Headquarters. Earlier in the year, our staff and members of the community sent handmade Valentines to the nondenominational Glide Memorial soup kitchen in San Francisco’s Tenderloin District. The transformational experience of gifting which is so widely practiced in BRC is now being expanded and replicated wherever Burners gather and live.
We strive to recognize and honor those who financially support the work of the Burning Man organization. Donor contributions of every size are essential to the success of our programming and to the expansion of our culture. Financial contributions sustain our year-round arts, civic engagement and educational offerings, while strengthening our growing network of global change leaders. We are deeply grateful to our donors, whose names can be found below.
