Kinward holding space for people to uncover the sacred and practice radical care.

"I began this journey entirely on a whim." ✨

As we close out this season, we’ve been reflecting on Mary O.’s journey through our Rooted Wisdom program.

Mary almost didn't join because of the cost—until a scholarship changed everything. Her experience went from a "whim" to one of the hardest, most rewarding chapters of her life, completely transforming her work as a grief counselor.

"Much grief, pain, and shame were unearthed. I almost threw in the towel after only a couple weeks in. I'm grateful I chose to persist. It allowed me to step into a more expansive version of myself... I know with exquisite certainty now that 'the deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.'"

Because of the impact it had on her life, Mary is now a monthly donor, ensuring the next person can walk through that same door.

Stories like Mary's are exactly why we do this. Every gift to Kinward creates the conditions for someone to show up, go deep, and leave changed. That is the ripple effect.

If you’ve been thinking about becoming a monthly sustainer, there is still time to join us before the season ends.

"The world is so good at making me feel like I’m not good enough... Kinward has shown me that my truth is worth hearing."

When we asked Julie what the Kinward community has meant to her, she didn't reach for polished words. She just told the truth—and she teared up saying it. For Julie, this isn't abstract. It’s the difference between moving through the world guarded and finally getting to be herself.

That is what your support makes possible.

Kinward is a nonprofit sustained by people who believe this kind of work is worth sustaining. This year, we took a big step: we reduced our prices and continued honoring every single scholarship request. Cost should never stand between someone and this space.

But that commitment only holds because our community chooses to give.

The Kinward Giving Collective is a growing community of donors holding this work steady. This month, we're focusing on growing the circle of monthly givers within that community. Every gift, at any size, creates a ripple that reaches further than we can always see.

If you feel invited to join them, we'd be honored to have you.

Something beautiful happened at Kinward this spring. 🌱

Our flagship course, Rooted Wisdom, just completed its first 8-month learning community journey. Watching people move toward Spirit, each other, and themselves reminded us exactly why this work matters so much.

As we close out the spring semester, we're also stepping into something new: a campaign to grow our community of monthly givers so this work can keep reaching everyone who needs it.

Here's why monthly giving matters to us:

Kinward is a nonprofit, and over 95% of our funding comes from this community, from people who believe this kind of work is worth sustaining. This year, we took it a step further. We reduced our prices significantly and continued honoring every scholarship request, because we never want cost to be what stands between someone and this space.

That commitment only holds because people choose to give.

Right now, 30 faithful sustainers are already giving monthly, holding this work steady month after month. We'd love for that circle to grow.

If you feel invited to join them, even $10 a month makes a difference, and you'd be in good company.
