Give From the Heart

In ancestral tradition, ìbùkún (Yoruba: blessing) or giving is a spiritual act—one that affirms connection, community, and reciprocity with all of life. No gift is too small. Every dollar supports prayer, practice, and presence. Every offering waters and nourishes the roots of this sacred work.

“To give is to enter the circle of life—to nourish what nourishes us.”
