Indigenous Project
Help indigenous healers get a safe boat to reach remote communities,
deliver care, and protect lives. Urgent and life-saving mission!
Who are they?
There are two extraordinary souls, Maná and Ratsuhá, living and working in the heart of the Amazon in Brazil. They are not only healers, but guardians of life itself. Through their compassion, wisdom, and sacred knowledge, they have safely guided new life into this world, and helped bring healing to thousands, including myself, and for people I personally know and love.
They are in high demand and also take care of their own family - including 50 grandchildren.
There are no hospitals.
No government support.
Maná Madhá
Pajé
Maná, known among his people as “Santo” (Saint), carries a rare and profound lineage of traditional training, knowledge that very few shamans (pajés) still hold today. His mastery of plant medicine and spiritual healing is extraordinary. He is known to work on both the physical and spiritual levels, even to the extent of drawing illness from the body and materialising it, releasing it in tangible form. He is, in every sense, a complete healer.
Ratsuhá Madhá
Ratsuhá, his partner in both life and service, is equally remarkable. A birth specialist who has attended approximately 2,800 births, she carries immense wisdom in both midwifery and plant medicine. Together, they serve their community and beyond with devotion, humility, and deep ancestral knowledge rooted in the Madhá tradition.
What do they need?
Right now, they are in urgent need of support.
To continue their vital work, reaching remote communities, delivering healing, and ensuring safe births, they urgently need a larger, faster, and more reliable boat. With increasingly severe flooding linked to climate change, travel has become far more dangerous. Their current boat is not only too small and unreliable, but has also been repeatedly stolen and left vulnerable. Fuel is often misused, and the conditions on the water put them at real risk, especially from wildlife such as anacondas, which are more present during floods and can enter the vessel.
This is not just a matter of convenience; it is about safety, continuity of care, and the preservation of sacred knowledge and service that impacts countless lives.
