Support the Work
Widen the circle.
Sustain radical access.
This work grows through solidarity. Your contribution helps keep In Awe accessible to all families — through community-powered access built on trust, interdependence, and the old truth that what heals one family strengthens us all.
Support with any amountWhy this matters
Community-powered access is not new. It is ancient wisdom remembered.
Before there were systems of profit and permission, there was a simple understanding: we belong to one another. Families and neighbors shared what they had so no one crossed a threshold alone. Communities gathered at the edge of birth and death, walked by lamplight toward another's cry, brought warmth and witness to make sure no one moved through sacred change unseen.
In Awe carries that lineage forward — community-powered access built on the old truth of ubuntu: I am because we are. Your participation, in any form, helps restore that shared inheritance of care.
Who gives, and why
To give is to say:
I am part of this circle.
In gratitude
Some give after walking the course and feeling what it changed in them — returning something to the circle that held them.
In memory
Some give in memory of someone they love — a baby, a parent, a loss that deserved more witness than the world offered.
In solidarity
Some contribute after receiving a scholarship, keeping the circle open for the next family standing where they once stood.
In recognition
Some give simply because they recognize that what heals one family strengthens us all — and want to be part of that.
What your support enables
Every contribution widens what is possible.
- Scholarship seats — full course access for families where cost is a barrier, no application required
- Loving Legacies — keeping the companion for loss freely available to every family who needs it
- Accessibility — building toward broader accessibility across devices, abilities, and circumstances
- Future editions — building toward community-specific editions for queer and trans parents, parents of color, and others whose stories deserve to be centered
- Ongoing creation — sustaining the work of curriculum, community, and care between editions

For organizations
Looking to support access at scale?
Hospitals, universities, community organizations, and foundations are beginning to recognize what families have always known: care is collective, and healing multiplies when it is shared.
Partnerships with In Awe help restore that truth at a structural level — transforming access from an act of generosity into a practice of justice.

Every contribution — of resources, time, or witness — restores an older rhythm of belonging: the one that says your well-being and mine are woven.
When you give, you help create a culture where care is not a privilege but a practice, where transformation is held, and families are never left to carry it alone.
This is the work of repair, remembrance, and return. And it happens because we do it — together.
Thank you for standing inside the circle.
