Sustaining Aashna+
Sustaining Aashna+ is paramount to ensure we can continue to support our vision to provide culturally sensitive accessible therapy. Initial funding was raised through the home group, alongside funding through the Let's Get Uncomfortable project donations, Aashna+ GoFundMe and from April 2024 the Aashna+ Open Collective has helped sustain Aashna+ into our fifth year and beyond.
Donate
We invite our friends, family and Aashna community to donate Aashna+ via the Aashna+ Open Collective to support therapy to be accessible to our communities.
