This month we dedicate the Women's Healing Circle to the 13 Indigenous Grandmothers

Until this month and continuing in May the Circle donates all the money it collects from participants to EQUIS-MGF , a Pan-African women's group based in Catalunya providing training to African women to help educate other women to prevent female circumcision and promote family planning and health awareness.

But this month, our circle meeting on the last Saturday in April, we dedicate the activities and funds to The International Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers. They are preparing for their 9th International Council in Anchorage in May. Please visit their website and that of the documentary about their work For the Next 7 Generations.

I'm sorry I missed their visit to Spain and hope I can be in their physical presence someday. I've heard their talks online and am always inspired and moved to tears.

What a wonderful way to celebrate Earth day, all month, by learning more about the 13 Grandmother's work.
