Beginning in September 2021, Bevin has set aside any money given in excess of her stated fees in a “Tip it Forward” fund. This money has been used to make her work accessible to folks across a broader economic spectrum through very low-cost or gifted bodywork. Inspired by this practitioner in Kentucky and by the reality that many folks have been systematically deprived of the wealth building tools her own family has enjoyed, she hopes that small acts of generosity will make it possible to provide healing work to people who really need it no matter what their financial situation.
As of August, 2023, about $3500 worth of work has been gifted, with about $2500 being reimbursed from the fund. From Bevin: “It has been a real pleasure to be able to share my work with folks who would not have found their way onto my table without your support. Thank you so much!”
