First retreatants supported!

We are very happy to share the news that we have received applications and will be able to help eight wonderful people to attend the LGBTIQA+ Retreat at the European institute of applied Buddhism in April 2025.

For five people it will be there first retreat in a Plum Village practice center, which we are extra excited about. Knowing the difficulties queer people are facing in the world right now and feeling the impact on our minds and bodies, we are very grateful that we can offer opportunities like this. Our gratitude goes to the Thich Nhat Hanh Foundation, which supplied us with the funding for what is hopefully the start of a long journey. Also to everyone who laid the groundwork for what we are doing right now and our friends and networks supporting us on this path,

We also received our first donation and want to wholeheartly thank our first donor! If you feel inspired to donate also please click here: https://www.helloasso.com/associations/collectif-du-dharma-arc-en-ciel/formulaires/1
