RETURN's Esalen Relief Fund

Donation protected
Today we got news that due to the massive and widespread landslides that are following what is a record breaking amount of rain currently coming down, Esalen, Big Sur and every business within it has been closed to the public for the foreseeable future. They lost a bridge to the North and the highway collapsed into the ocean in multiple places to the South.

This is a major act of god and long time Big Sur locals are in a state of awe as they have never seen anything like this before. This is historic and truly catastrophic for Big Sur.

Esalen operates on a wire thin margins. And as a non profit, they rely on the community in times like this, when they are facing all of the lost revenue from canceled workshops, which make up most all of the income Esalen relies on. Lets support the people who have dedicated their lives to keeping this dream alive.

Let's rally our communities support for that little spot on on the edge of the world that stewards the historic and deeply powerful land many of us hold dear.

If you would like to make a substantial donation please contact [email redacted] and I'll connect you with the proper channels.
Help spread the word!

We'll be coordinating directly with Esalen to make sure the funds are used in the most highly impactful way during this time of need.
