<div><strong>Dear family, friends, peers and colleagues,</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are thrilled to share that the Cycle Community BIPOC Scholarship Fund is over half-way to our goal of 20k! Thank you to all who have donated! For those who have yet to donate, or those who can make an additional donation, we would love your support now!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>We need to reach 15k by August 8th, 2026, for our fall retreats!</strong>
</li>
<li><strong>We need to reach 20k by December 31st, 2026, to support spring retreats!</strong>
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Already 10k of contributions to the Fund has financed dedicated BIPOC students to attend Threshold Process and Cycle of Transformation retreats over the last 18mo. These students need support to continue their journey. We also have new BIPOC applicants to the Threshold Process. Many have been participating for years in preparatory learning to meet this experience.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Please help these individuals reach their goals by making a donation to the BIPOC Scholarship Fund today!</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>We welcome all levels of contribution. Truly, every dollar counts! </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We began The Cycle Community BIPOC fund in 2025 to directly resource BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) students to attend The Threshold Process and The Cycle of Transformation retreats. The Threshold Process is an in-person immersive in animist life-ways that opens the gate to The Cycle of Transformation. The Cycle of Transformation is a rigorous five-year process learning to use shamanic skills for individual and collective liberation and to manifest our unique gifts and purpose in service to the Earth and all of life. Remembering how to be a part of a thriving community is intrinsic to the process!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Cycle Community is a non-local collective of people who are in the process of completing, or have completed, The Cycle of Transformation. We are committed to living and tending the teachings of The Cycle of Transformation. These teachings offer a radical roadmap to break free from extractive models of the dominant culture and step into a regenerative relationship with all of life. They are one answer to the question of how we move out of crisis and into prosperity here on Earth! The Community produces the Threshold Process and The Cycle of Transformation’s in-person retreats to ensure that the teachings are available to those who want them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our BIPOC Scholarship Fund is for BIPOC who want the teachings and do not have financial means to cover tuition for The Threshold Process or The Cycle of Transformation retreats. Now more than ever, we need communities to embody the diversity that makes our human family inherently creative, and rich with potential to manifest a world our descendants will be proud to inherit. We can no longer afford to dream apart.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please join us in dreaming together by making a donation today! If you cannot offer financial support, we appreciate your good thoughts and prayers;
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>May BIPOC who want these liberatory teachings be supported to join the Threshold Process and Cycle of Transformation retreats with ease and joy in perfect time!</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your attention and care!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Wishing you safety, space for connection with what brings you joy, and a deep sense of abiding love to fortify your spirits in these times!
</div>
