The Sacred Transition

The Sacred Transition is a nonprofit organization and community of volunteers providing mindful care and compassionate support to people living with cancer, caregivers and grieving families. We believe in living full, conscious lives with love, joy, dignity and light as well as holding all of life’s difficult moments as sacred opportunities for mindful healing, awakening and expansion. We manifest our mission through authentic relating, care packages intended to anticipate needs and comforts, advocacy and education with mindfulness practice woven throughout. We stand as one with every person in our community, which is really anyone who has or is going through a difficult life transition and particularly people living with cancer, whether we’ve met them yet or not! Someone is thinking about you, cares deeply and is honored to meet you where you are and walk together through this season and always. This project birthed out of the Founder, Elizabeth Taylor’s personal experience walking with her husband Marcus through his courageous cancer journey and sacred transition. She creates care packages with those small comfort and practical items one wouldn’t think they need until in this experience, and brings the compassion one would hope to receive to truly feel they are supported through the process. Elizabeth collaborates with her personal network and volunteers to collect donations, build care packages and get them in the right hands. To date this organization has served over 700 families with care packages and support, and is widely recognized for its unique humane, dignified and mutual approach.
