Giving Back

This dream is coming true!

Today I was able to give $268 to buy water filtration straws for Congo! Thank you for your orders of Indestructible Spirit // Vajra Rose + Fortune Fulfillment // Telluric Bloom in November + December 2024!  This is a small step in a really important direction. 
 
Years ago I envisioned being able to tithe a portion of proceeds to various causes from sales of my art. I am so thrilled to have finally begun! When I launched Indestructible Spirit // Vajra Rose + Fortune Fulfillment // Telluric Bloom, I talked a little bit about the huge inspiration I received from the mineral kingdom in the form of our modern microchips. Learning about how the microchips are made lead me down a rabbit hole that was life changing. I read a book called Cobalt Red which taught me about the current situation in Congo where children are mining raw materials for the batteries in all our devices. It was horrifying and deeply moving, really contemplating the implications of this.  So I wanted to do something. I am grateful for the opportunity to give and look forward to giving more.
 
I decided to extend the tithing on these designs - I will give 100% profit - which I am calculating as 40% of the purchase price - of all Spirit // Vajra Rose + Fortune Fulfillment // Telluric Bloom Yoga Mats + Bags through March 31! I will either give again to the Congo water filtration straw project (via Voluntaryism in Action) or another fundraiser benefitting Congo.

The world without spirit is a wasteland. People have the notion of saving the world by shifting things around, changing the rules, and who’s on top, and so forth. No, no! Any world is a valid world if it’s alive. The thing to do is to bring life to it, and the only way to do that is to find in your own case where the life is and become alive yourself.
