Donations & Scholarship
Our retreats are designed to inspire you to live your life to the fullest and embrace your authenticity within.
OUR MISSION
❝ The essence of our Guided Soul Retreats is also to give back, to help those that need it most, and to support and sustain life on earth. Our founding principle is that some of our profits will go to help empower indigenous peoples to preserve and protect their land, traditions, and wisdom.
❝ None of this would be possible without the generosity of facilitators, volunteers, participants, and donators. We are so grateful to you all and are deeply honoured to be walking this path together.
❝ For all of you who have been part of this, we hope you take a moment to hold in your heart that sweet feeling that we are doing something good together.
Thank you!

Here are some of the incredible institutions & projects we are proud to support.
AMAZON WATCH
Amazon Watch is a nonprofit organization founded in 1996 to protect the rainforest and advance the rights of Indigenous peoples in the Amazon Basin. We partner with Indigenous and environmental organizations in campaigns for human rights, corporate accountability and the preservation of the Amazon’s ecological systems.
We envision a world where the collective rights of Indigenous peoples and the rights of nature are respected and where healthy forests, biodiversity, and the global climate are fully protected by governments, corporations and civil society.
We seek solutions that will lead to the transformation of our economic, financial and political governance systems to ones that are life-affirming and regenerative. We commit, in the spirit of partnership and mutual respect, to support Indigenous, forest, and traditional peoples in their efforts to protect life, land, and culture in accordance with their aspirations and needs, by advocating for true solutions that respect the principles of climate justice.
INDIGENOUS MEDICINE CONSERVATION FUND
As an Indigenous-led philanthropic vehicle IMCF work to ensure the resilience of our Peoples in the face of cultural appropriation, environmental extractivism, human rights violations and climate change.
Partnering with funders globally, informed by robust ecological and community-based assessments, they build alliances with organizations on-the-ground, fund their efforts and do strategic engagement with leaders of each bio-culture.
