Sacred I is a heart-centered spiritual collective dedicated to unity, healing, and conscious action. Our outreach programs are in early development, and we’re laying the foundation for meaningful impact:
Reggae for a Reason aims to establish a support fund for reggae musicians facing health challenges, as well as their families in times of loss. Future goals include promoting reggae and Caribbean studies in schools, and partnering with organizations like Kids Rock the Nation to provide youth with instruments and access to music education.
The Natural Spectrum Project is focused on holistic wellness and plans to collaborate with organizations such as Swiss Medica to support alternative healing pathways and awareness. As we grow, we’ll explore additional partnerships aligned with our mission.
