I am Darsheel Kaur ~ you may know me from my work with Circle of Roots, the HeArt Dayton, partnerships with the Luv Locz Experiment, Natural Onyx Dimensions, COOP Dayton; or maybe you've met me along my travels; or out in the community in Dayton Ohio working with the youths, at a teach-in or cultural gathering, advocating, hosting, or connecting, selling herbal teas or books. 

Over the years, community fundraising has allowed me to support building my cousin's school in rural India, as well as pay stipends to youths in Dayton to participate in our healing arts programming at the HeArt Dayton and be compensated for contributing their skills to our intentional community. In light of my 35th birthday, instead of receiving gifts for myself, I would like to invite some specific support for this chapter of my life's work.

For the last 2 years, I have been building a sustainable refuge space for myself in the mountains in the Caribbean of Costa Rica. With almost 14 years of returning to this country, I have developed relationships in my local community and would like to give back as I begin to host visitors for educational & healing arts retreats. I am raising these funds to subsidize local participation in upcoming gatherings~ similar to how I did at the HeArt Dayton years past. Whether that is through youth involvement, cultural exchange programs to connect locals with visitors, or contributing to the local economy as an invitation to experience our HeArt culture. All contributions will go towards these goals ~ any amount is greatly appreciated! Thank you for your continued support!
