Wild Haven Sanctuary's YogaFaith Fall RESTore to ROAR Retreat

(Blue Ridge Mountains of Ashe County, NC)

September 4- 6 (with extended stay option through September 7)

 

Ripple Effect Partnership: 

True Retreat Value: $2,000+

Partnership Investment: $450 or more

At Wild Haven Sanctuary, we believe hope and healing should continue moving forward.

Thanks to generous donors, sponsors, and participants who have come before you, a significant portion of the true cost of this retreat has already been covered.

Rather than simply paying for your own experience, we invite each participant to help create a ripple effect by contributing a Partnership Investment of $1,100, which helps make future retreats possible for the women who will come after you.

The Heart Behind This Model 💜

Join the Mission. Grow the Vision. Help Others Move from Surviving to Thriving.

We believe restoration as a lifestyle grows through generosity.

Someone invested so that you could have this opportunity.

Your investment helps ensure that another woman will have the opportunity as well.

Together, we create a cycle of hope, healing, and restoration that extends far beyond a single event.

Together, we can ensure that finances never become a barrier for those seeking hope, healing, and restoration.

"Someone made room for me. Now I get to make room for someone else."

One woman. 🦋 One transformation. 🦁 One ripple that can change generations. 🌱🌳

Onsite Lodging that's included in your retreat: We have 8 to 10 person Glamping tents (x2) - usually pitched near the waterfall/stream or on the mountain top - with comfy cots, mattresses, lighting, and a large battery generator (so it's quiet) for charging electronics (if you need them).

OR Bring your own tent and sleeping accommodations! (Vehicle camping is allowed, too - that's what Trish is known to do!)

Why We Call It a "Ripple Effect" Partnership

When you partner with us, you're doing more than attending a retreat.

You're helping build something bigger than our current capacity to serve.

Your partnership helps Wild Haven Sanctuary:

✨ Provide scholarship and sponsorship opportunities for those facing financial hardship

✨ Expand programs and services that support whole-person well-being

✨ Develop future ADA compliant facilities, lodging, and gathering spaces

✨ Bring additional health and wellness professionals into the mission

✨ Increase access to hope and healing experiences for individuals, families, caregivers, and helping professionals.

Need Assistance?

We never want finances to be the sole reason someone misses an opportunity for restoration and renewal.

Monthly options are available through PayPal for those who prefer to invest over time.

If the Ripple Effect Partnership presents a struggle, please contact Trish at [email protected] before registering. In some situations, alternative partnership opportunities, fundraising support, or other creative solutions may be available.

Our hope is that every participant approaches this experience not simply as a guest, but as a valued partner in helping create a ripple effect of hope and healing for those who will come after them.
