Welcome to the Wake Up Everybody Virtual Community!
Where We Choose to Awaken, Transform and Ascend
Show WUE Some LOVE!
The Wake Up Everybody community space was created for us, by us — rooted in love, cultural wisdom, collective liberation, and healing. Our volunteer team and facilitators work diligently, leading from the kindness of their hearts. They share their gifts, talents, lived experiences, expertise, and — most importantly — their time for the healing and upliftment of our community.
We invite our community to pour back into this exchange of energy through love offerings and donations that help sustain and further enhance the Wake Up Everybody experience for all. We recognize that time is currency, and our volunteers and facilitators generously offer their time, energy, and wisdom to bring each session to life in service of collective healing.
Love offerings are not payments for a service. They are sacred contributions toward sustaining the ecosystem we call Wake Up Everybody (WUE) — an ongoing exchange rooted in reciprocity, care, and community.
We believe that money is energy, as our host, Shawnee Benton Gibson, reminds us:
M.O.N. E.Y. — My Own Natural Energy Yield!
What we give circulates.
What we invest grows.
When we give from a place of gratitude and reciprocity, we are not simply transferring dollars. We are honoring labor. We are valuing time. We are choosing to sustain what sustains us.
Your offering helps us:
-
Honor the time, preparation, and emotional labor of our facilitators
-
Maintain the platforms that allow us to gather live
-
Cover the costs of text messaging systems, email communications, and community updates
-
Invest in new tools and advancements that help us grow
-
Ensure this space remains accessible and community-centered
When you give, you are not just supporting a session. You are strengthening a movement. You are helping us maintain integrity, independence, and sustainability without relying solely on external funding or institutions.
Wake Up exists because we choose to sustain it together.
This is reciprocity.
This is community economics.
This is love in action. 💛
