Community Doesn’t Build Itself: Help Secure a Space for Wild Seed Wellness
Earlier this year, ELIXHER chatted with Ana María Agüero Jahannes, massage therpist and founder of Wild Seed Wellness. (Read InspiHERed By: Ana María Agüero Jahannes.) Wild Seed Wellness (WSW) offers affordable massage therapy for queer and trans people of color in Oakland. Massage therapy services at Wild Seed Wellness are sliding scale so that clients are able to afford to make healing a priority and a routine. The 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month are donation-based days.
In order to expand and offer more appointments, WSW is moving to the Living Room Project, an accessible healing justice practice/community space for queer and trans people of color, in West Oakland. Right now, it’s necessary for WSW to raise $3,500 dollars by June 2 to pay for 6 months rent.
Ana is 15 days and $1,600 away from meeting her goal. Please donate to this incredible and much-needed endeavor. Give anything you can. Every bit matters! Community doesn’t build itself.
