Work-Trade & Scholarship Application

Work-Trade & Scholarship Application

Thank you for your interest in this work trade scholarship opportunity for my Postpartum Sealing Workshop. This work trade opportunity was made with the intention of offering a fluent Spanish speaking Birth Worker of Color (BWOC) the opportunity to attend , who would otherwise not be able to attend .

I value being able to give back to the community from which these practices originate from. This helps sustain equity in our communities so that these practices and services are being rendered to their natural inheritors . It helps restore balance of the practices lost within our community . It is an effort to balance that , that has become a luxury and a means of privilege to both the client and the practitioners .

Understand that this means if you are selected that you will carry with you a responsibility, to re- learn and re-claim ancient medicine that belongs to you and our community .

I believe in energetic exchange , because of this the selected recipient will work trade . This will include proof reading a handbook , social media posts for advertising , set-up , clean -up , help with registration are among some of the tasks .

This following questionnaire and application will help me make the very difficult task of choosing who can benefit from the most and who will be able to pay it forward the most.

Please fill out by August 15th 10:00pm. I will announce the work trade recipient Wednesday August 20th.

With love and gratitude!
