We are dedicated to teaching and spreading compassion through art and mindfulness.

We envision a world where everyone has what they need to thrive, conflict is generative, everyone is free to be the fullest version of themselves, and humans live harmoniously with the Earth.

Compassionate change starts with us.

Compassion is a skill and practice that fosters deeper and more authentic connections, leading to stronger and more resilient relationships - with ourselves, others, and the Earth.

When these relationships are nurtured, they promote more effective ways to navigate conflict and stress, as well as lead to greater life fulfillment and satisfaction.

Ripples of Compassion.

From how we teach, communicate, and fundraise: we are always looking to learn and grow. Speaking of, we are inspired by the fundraising movement, Community Centered Fundraising.

Our 501(c)3 is non-partisan, non-religious, and based in Bozeman, Montana, on the occupied traditional gathering grounds of several tribes.

These tribes include the Apsaalooke (Crow), Salish, Kootenai, Tsetho’e (Cheyenne), Shoshone-Bannock, Niisitapi (Blackfoot), and others. We acknowledge the pain and grief of centuries of colonization and its impacts on peoples and lands, and commit to forging a future founded in truth-telling, healing, love, and respect.
