Fund the completion of “Waking Up: Tea & Chán Buddhism in China”
We’re in the final stretch!
With over $150,000 already invested and three successful filming trips to China thanks to the Robert H.N. Ho Family Foundation, Waking Up is well underway. We've captured incredible footage and have a clear vision for the final film. We need to raise an additional $65,000 to complete this powerful documentary and share it with a global audience in Spring 2026. Your investment will directly support:
Post-Production Costs ($50,000): Expert editing, sound, music and animation to bring the story to life.
Distribution and Outreach ($15,000): Ensuring 'Waking Up' reaches film festivals, educational platforms, and viewers worldwide.
Join us in completing 'Waking Up' and sharing the profound wisdom of Chán Buddhism with the world. Every contribution helps us cross the finish line!
All supporters will be invited to a special viewing of sneak peak footage, and a discussion with Edward A. Burger on the making of this film.
