Help us reach our goal of $100,000 or more
$120,367 raised so far, CONGRATULATIONS!


Imagine a hike on a beautiful, sunny day
over hills and through valleys.

Imagine that this hike is one where,
with every step you take, you are adding
to the sum total of loving in someone's life.

You are surrounded by others who, like you,
Walk in Love. Together, you all walk with the knowing
that each step moves someone closer to experiencing
in a deeper way, who they truly are as a Divine Being having a human experience.

THAT WALK IS SPIRITWALK.

About The University of Santa Monica 
USM is a pioneering institution of higher learning. Its Master's Degree curriculum draws from the great advances in modern Western psychology and timeless spiritual wisdom to transform education as we know it. The outcome is students courageously living their lives in alignment with the expression of their inherent attributes and gifts.
 
 
 
History of SpiritWalk
SpiritWalk was founded by USM graduate, Francesco Barbera in 2010. Francesco valued his education so highly that he wanted to ensure that others would not be denied the opportunity of USM's curriculum because of financial concerns. Since it's inception, SpiritWalk has raised over $200,000 and has supported over 160 students. Our goal in 2012 is to raise more than $100,000. To accomplish this, we envision at least 200 USM students and grads participating in the event and raising $500 or more.
 
A Cycle of Giving
As students pay back the interest free loans, the monies are then re-loaned to incoming students providing a cycle of ongoing financial assistance. As the Fund grows with each SpiritWalk event, the number of students that can benefit from the assistance program grows as well!
