Community Wellness

Zhawenim Wellness strives to create more of a difference in the Peterborough and Indigenous community. Zhawenim is in the development stages of launching their community wellness program. ‘Zhawenim’ meaning Compassion, is dedicated formost to helping hurting people. Whether physical, emotional, mental or spiritual. The plan is to donate all tips as well as a percentage of proceeds to local Indigenous, women or 2 spirit initiatives, showcasing a different initiative each season. Other aspects are; compassionate pricing, free services for people living in women’s or trauma shelters and community events that support initiatives in need are some of the plans that are in the works. Another passion of Zhawenim Wellness is Indigenous cultural heritage. Stefanie is currently learning as much as she can to reclaim her Anishinaabe culture and is passionate about advocacy of Indigenous people accessing the resources and community partnerships to bring healing, as well as education to non-indigenous allies, so that we can create a beautiful partnership that is inclusive and compassionate for all.
