Birthday Celebration Fundraiser! (2021)

To celebrate the birth of the Money Health Collective, as well as Lin's birthday, we're organizing our first fundraiser! If you have the means, please consider donating! Services provided by the Money Health Collective are volunteer-run, and all donations go directly towards the cost of running the Collective to ensure that anyone is able to access the programs at no cost. Thanks so much for all your support!

Hello! 👋

Thanks so much for stopping by. Building the Money Health Collective has been a dream of mine for almost a decade - a safe, supportive, empowering space that anyone is able to access, focused on tackling a topic (money) that can be so challenging for all of us to navigate.

It’s been such a journey to get to this point, where the Money Health Collective is now real. It’s still in its very early days, but wonderful people from all over the world have participated in sessions with us over the last few month, and we’re continuing to grow. I’m so grateful for the friends, friends-of-friends, and strangers-turned-friends who have chosen to join us in this space, as well as the incredible coaches and co-fellows at the Mira Fellowship who have helped make all of this happen.

"My most beautiful moment? Witnessing the 'Ah ha' moment of others. So much belonging, safety, and care. That's what is absent in many financial spaces I have experienced." - shared by an amazing Money Health Collective participant

On my birthday this year, I’m challenging myself to do something that I’ve always struggled to do -- to ask for and accept support 😊 This is the Money Health Collective’s first ever fundraiser! Since the Money Health Collective is entirely volunteer-run (including myself as a volunteer), all money raised will go towards operational expenses for facilitating sessions and directly supporting the collective’s participants. One thing I love about our fiscal sponsor (Open Collective) is that its platform provides all donors with complete transparency in how the funds are being spent. Also, since our fiscal sponsor is a registered 501c3, all of your donations are tax-deductible.

So what exactly is the Money Health Collective?

A safe and supportive space to explore our stories around money, through facilitated, peer-supported conversations
Virtual and open to anyone regardless of background, with no cost to access
Designed with intention to directly help participants with the situations they’re facing, alongside a supportive community, with guided resources and tools

For more information, including testimonials from participant experiences, as well as an introductory video, take a look at www.moneyhealthcollective.org.

By connecting with and understanding people from completely different backgrounds, on a topic (money) that can be so difficult for all of us, my hope is that we can be more united as a global community, to truly support and empower one another.

If you have questions, or if you’d like to participate or support in other ways (joining a Money Conversation session, volunteering, collaborating, anything at all), please don’t hesitate to reach out anytime! [email protected]

Wishing you and your loved ones a wonderful holiday season!

With love & gratitude,

Lin
