A new initiative, Tea Blend & Sip Restorative Wellness, has been launched to address the wellness crisis in the nonprofit sector. According to a survey by the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) and The Chronicle of Philanthropy, 84% of fundraisers report feeling immense pressure to succeed, while 82% of nonprofit leaders reported burnout symptoms.
Program Details
Tea Blend & Sip experiences are guided, hands-on sessions where participants engage all five senses while blending custom loose-leaf teas. The program is designed to provide a structured and accessible pathway to self-care for nonprofit fundraisers and mission-driven professionals.
The program is available nationally and internationally, and organizations can book Tea Blend & Sip experiences for team events, conferences, retreats, and special occasions. This scalability positions the offering as adaptable to different contexts, from small staff gatherings to large-scale convenings.
Behind this initiative is Kia Croom, a global fractional fundraiser with a 25-year track record of raising more than $1 billion for causes worldwide. Croom is also a folk herbalist and founder of Itutu Apothecary & Tea Room, where she merges ethnobotany, herbalism, and folklore into immersive wellness programming.
