How Do You Make a Big Difference?
One Small Gift At a Time.
The St. Dymphna Fund
The St. Dymphna Fund was established to fund the subsidize treatment for the the highest-need clients that come to Agape Wellness Collective. Without your support, these clients would not be able to receive mental health care with an Orthodox therapist. These clients can typically afford less than $20/session, and without AWC, would likely be turned away.
$100 covers 1 session
$400 for one month of care
$1000 covers 10 appts, a research-backed number of sessions
$2500 provides 6 months worth of treatment
St. Dymphna, also known as St. Daphne, was an early-church saint, killed by her own father, who himself struggled deeply with mental health issues. She is widely revered as the patron saint of those struggling with mental health concerns, those who help them, people going through domestic abuse, and other related issues. She is one of the patron saints of Agape Wellness Collective (along with St. Jude the Apostle, patron of impossible causes, and St. Irene Chrysovalantou).

The General Agape Fund
Agape Wellness Collective is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity. We are proudly a pan-Orthodox organization, and are growing rapidly. All of your gifts go directly to advancing our mission, ensuring clients have access to high-quality mental health care that honors their Orthodox faith, ensuring our therapists are compensated at fair rates that value their hard work and expertise, running college support groups in partnership with OCF, launching addiction support groups in partnership with the St. Anastasia Fellowship, providing peer consultation groups for our Affiliated Providers, and building for so much more in the future.
AWC is not just providing affordable and accessible mental health care through Orthodox therapists. We’re building a movement. We’re starting conversations. We’re changing the game. We’re challenging you to rethink what an Orthodox approach to mental health looks like. (And here’s a hint: It takes communion.)
