This is a soft guide. A way to support our work, based on your own access and abundance.
This is a reminder that your presence is already part of the exchange.
Give what feels possible, and know that all forms of support — mutual aid, financial gifts, nourishment, seeds or other forms of care — are honored here.
We do not see this work as a service to be bought,
but as a shared tending of spirit, body and memory.
This guide exists to support mutual sustainability.
We offer this practice through a three-tier model to make it accessible to those most impacted by systems of oppression, and to allow this work to be sustained with care.
Please choose the amount that feels most aligned with your current resources — while remembering this work also supports someone whose access may be more limited than yours.
We trust you to know your needs.
We trust you to honor ours too.

-
Rooted Rate
[1 hour: €2 - €22]
[2 hours+: €8 - €44]
For those grounding themselves through navigating systemic barriers such as limited access to income, healthcare, rest/stability
(e.g. people of the Global Majority, queer/trans/non-binary folks, care workers and those navigating survival)
This rate is supported by collective care and trust.
-
Reciprocal Rate
1 hour: €22 - €44
2 hours+: €44 - €88
For those with relative access to income and stability.
It helps sustain the practice while making space for others to receive care.
This also supports me in meeting my basic needs, and allows the practice to continue without being extractive or overextended.
-
Rebalancing Rate
1 hour: €44 - €88
2 hours+: €88 - €222
For those who are resourced with financial abundance, privilege, or generational support.
This helps balance access, allowing someone else to come at a lower rate, and helps keep this offering rooted, alive, and community-held.
Part of your contribution will be given to SagipKapwa
SagipKapwa is rooted in mutual aid. It’s about standing with each other as equals, sharing resources as we all face challenges in perhaps different ways. Here, asking for help comes without guilt, shame or obligation. When you can give, you do so freely; when you need support, you ask without hesitation. This cycle of care is how we build trust and resilience together.
Right now, SK is being used to support families and victims of the Mendiola protests.
The system is currently simply a GCash transfer combined with a Google form and ledger designed for transparency and ease. We invite you to join us or adapt this approach within your own circles to spread accessible mutual aid.
Your contributions help sustain this shared journey of care, strengthening our community in times of collective transformation and response-ability.
Sliding Scale may slightly vary depending on design, size, time and energy.
Feel free to reach out for any questions or to receive an indication.
