The Men of the Illuman East Coast Collaborative create and deliver programs that benefit from your support. Our efforts support small groups in states and Councils to do their “inner work that expands the depth and breadth of love in each man, and makes a difference in the world.”

Men come to us hurting, psychologically and spiritually. In our work that addresses these needs, we are committed to making all our major programs and events affordable for all interested men. We desire to underwrite men with fewer means. Major events require retreat facilities for multi-day stays, meals and event space. Their prices have risen significantly in the last few years. This increases our challenge to operate events on a break-event basis.

Men come to us longing to be part of a heart-based community of men. We know they will not resolve their challenges while thinking at the level that created them. They want to learn new ways of thinking, emotional development, and new practices that lead them to more meaningful lives. Your financial support significantly helps this mission.

Our operations require some infrastructure. We have minimal software and technology requirements. These require only a few thousand dollars per year, but are essential to our mission.

In the last couple of years we have increased our outreach support efforts to our men from Maine to Florida. We know meeting in-person is crucial to create and develop relationships, as well as to preserve motivation of leaders in those groups. Our Conveners have mostly self-funded this work. Most men who would take on the convening role cannot. Your financial support will help us improve this aspect of our mission.

We deeply appreciate the support we receive from many generous, regular donors.
