A beautiful first year & News to share

Dear friends,

We are celebrating a beautiful year of the Rainbow Dharma Collective. We were able to support 14 queer siblings to go on retreats, deepen their practice and bring joy back to their local communities. You can read some of their sharings down below.

Our gratitude goes to all the participants and to the Thich Nhat Hanh Foundations for the funds to kick us off.

We also organized an online event and individually contributed to Rainbow Spaces during different retreats this year. We feel very blessed to do this work and are happy for others to join this cause with their ressources. Please let us now, if you want to join us!

Next year we already have some plans too. We are very happy that there will be another round of funding available. This time wirh the support of the Temple Foundation. We are also working with Brother Bao Tang towards a series of online lectures for the Queer community. There is something happening towards deepening the connection with Queer ancestors, for which we will give an update in the upcoming months.

By the way: All our major news are shared over the mailing list of the international rainbow Sangha for which you can sign up here: https://meditation-lgbtqiplus-paris.jimdosite.com/rainbow-sangha-english/ (external link)

If you want to support our work, you can donate here or write us for joining our efforts.

With love and gratitude

Richi, Frieda, Pia and Fiona for the Rainbow Dharma Collective
