In a word, no. The Healing House Fund is inspired by mutual aid, a way of sharing resources out of solidarity, not charity. We all have areas of need. We all have resources to share to help our fellow humans get their needs met. We contribute, not donate. We respect, not rescue. Mutual aid is also a way to enact economic justice and actively practice anti-racism, anti-caste’ism, Queer alliance, and destigmatization + decolonization of mental health.

Anyone and everyone can contribute to the Fund; no amount is too small (or too large ;). Folks seeking to utilize the Fund can be referred through their therapist.

The amount of funds requested per session will vary by practitioner and practice. However, the max the Fund can contribute is $50 per session. So, if you like to think of it this way, you can think of one session as $50, or a month of sessions for $200.

No amount of contribution is too small, truly! That said, recurrent contributions - even small ones - are most helpful for being able to plan and maintain consistency.

Your contributions are tax-deductible! We are a fiscal sponsee of an organization called Wellness Works, Inc., which allows us to utilize their 501(c)3 status to make your contributions tax-deductible.

Wellness Works, Inc. collects a very small administrative fee to cover the cost of maintaining 501(c)3 status and processing contributions. One reason we wanted to be sponsored by Wellness Works, Inc. is that through their sponsorship, as absolutely much as possible of your contribution goes toward services. The Fund is run by a volunteer, with no overhead or administrative costs.
