What Your Donations Help to Support

Your tax-deductible contributions/pledges help to support our philosophy in the community programs.  Our programs are free to the public and support critical, creative thinking, the exchange of ideas, and the application of philosophy to everyday life.  More broadly, they are opportunities for people of all backgrounds and ages (from children to elders) to gather, to learn from and with one another, and to uniquely cultivate their personal and civic selves. By investing in philosophy, you are investing in community.

Investing in Philosophy by Investing in Community

We’re a Helena-based non-profit organization dedicated to enriching lives and strengthening the community and environment through philosophy.

  • spark and encourage the exchange of ideas & the fun of doing philosophy
  • promote critical, creative thought & reflection
  • cultivate “philosophical sensitivity”
