Forward Gifting / Contributions

How Forward Gifting Works

Suman Sangam does not follow fixed tariffs. Instead, it lives through a circle of giving.

Your stay is made possible by someone who contributed before you. During or after your visit, you are invited to continue this circle with a contribution that feels fair and within your means.

Your offering helps sustain the space by supporting:

  • Care and maintenance of the land
  • Protection of the forest and its biodiversity
  • Welcoming future visitors

This shared system rests on trust, transparency, and a collective sense of responsibility — a gentle reminder that what we receive, we help carry forward.
