Step 2: Purchase Your Retreat Package

Wild + Free Collective has committed to donating a portion of the proceeds from retreats to initiatives that are making our world a better place to live in.

A portion of the Jasper Yoga + Adventure retreat proceeds will be donated to Kickstand, a new initiative that’s transforming mental health care for young people in Alberta. 

While evidence-based mental health treatments are available, young Albertans are among the most underserved populations in terms of mental health and addictions challenges. The problem is existing services are not integrated. It’s hard for young people and their families/caregivers to know which door to walk through. 

That’s where Kickstand comes in. To learn more about Kickstand and how you can contribute go to mykickstand.ca
