Black American people put 109 billion dollars in the travel market in 2019 and spend an average of $2078 on the ground as we travel. However we only own 2% of hotels in the global market. MWASI wants to increase that number.
Consider a $1000 investment in a Black Centered Healing and Restoration space in Marrakesh, Morocco. We have 6 days to meet our goal! This is TIME SENSITIVE! Your investment offers you a 6 night accommodation at Mwasi Healing and Restoration Center, Breakfast Daily and a Saturday Brunch. Book today! If you don't know what week you can come, just choose a week and we will change it later.
We're providing a typical Mwasi Retreat Itinerary below for you to refer to when deciding what excursions you want to participate in. The excursions and meals must be booked prior to the Donors Week. No reservations will be made on-site due to Marrakesh's super busy tourism market.
Things we will need from each of you leading up to your week include:
1. Flight Itinerary
2. Pre-ordered excursions*
3. Pre-ordered meals*
*These are offered a la carte, and you will select what you want to participate in during this registration process. All the dinners are offered Moroccan family style and served at specific times. The meals will be pre-fixed menus and you will be able to select your meal choice when we get closer to your Donors Week. If you are participating in the tour on Wednesday and visiting Majorelle Gardens on Thursday, you will not need to purchase lunch on site.

MWASI HEALING AND RESTORATION CENTER SOFT OPENING!
From September 2023 to December 2023, Mwasi Healing and Restoration Center will be embarking on a soft opening during our build and refurbishing period. Five (5) rooms will be made available each week, as an extension of our $1000 Investment program. It will allow us to continue to support our local staff, raise money for our community, test our new staff and systems. It also gives our supporters an opportunity to be a part of this movement from the birth stages and participate in the early thought-work going into creating a Black-centered retreat space. A space committed to healing Black life...and as a result healing the world around us.
We are so excited to welcome you into this community!
Love, T.
