Global Relief
Responding with care, presence, and practical support where it is most needed.
A SHARED WISDOM INITIATIVE
When you contribute through the Fragrance of JOY community, your donations are stewarded through the Shared Wisdom nonprofit to support global service organizations engaged in timely humanitarian work. In this way, participation in a personal spiritual community naturally extends into care for the larger world.
We believe each of us is an integral piece of the whole. Supporting others becomes an exploration of ourselves — a reminder of our shared humanity and the fragile, interconnected truth of our lives. We can commit to our own health and wellbeing while also serving the whole of humanity.
When we see ourselves as part of the whole rather than separate from it, geography becomes secondary to need and possibility.
Our goal for 2026 is for Shared Wisdom to donate $100,000 to organizations providing meaningful humanitarian outreach. Highlighted below are a few of the groups we currently support through the Shared Wisdom nonprofit.
