SOS! We now have a wonderful Outreach Worker, Dee. She is keeping in touch with 14 children who desperately need a "best friend". She is doing this as a volunteer because she really cares about children, and knows what it's like to be homeless. New children are being added to her "extended family" all the time. She is a positive influence on kids' lives that are in chaos.
We are seeking tax deductible donations to pay Dee a salary for the wonderful work she is doing. Just go to the DONATE button below - and thank you!
The book "MARY'S GARDEN" has been published!!
It is a wonderfully illustrated story for "children of all ages". It is available on Amazon (click here to order) and will soon also be on Kindle! All profits from sales of the book will support our programs, especially the Prosperity Project.
- WHOLE FOODS has donated two bales of hay to keep our plants warm in the winter; and SONOMA COMPOST donated 10 yards of compost.
- Joy of Learning Center is aligned with the Movement to Reverse Diabetes Naturally (RDN Movement), aiming to create the conditions and lifestyle of health. For folks who don't want to follow a totally raw diet, we offer products from the Moringa Tree. To order these miraculous products call 415-499-0907.

ABOUT THE JOY OF LEARNING CENTERS
THE JOY OF LEARNING CENTERS was born from a healing crisis that its Founder, Marika Love, experienced. After a lengthy recovery, Marika decided to give back what the Universe gave to her: low cost living situations; affordable wholistic healing sessions; nutritional and herbal therapies; a home and a family to receive the children she lost during her illness. Through our programs, we intend to transform negative human energies into a powerful force for healing humanity and the earth.
Since
its beginnings in May, 1992, the Joy of Learning Center has also provided low
cost housing and wholistic health information to over 200 low-income
renters. Many of these renters have overcome addictions to drugs and
alcohol while living here.
The Five Programs :
1. The Family Home Project: A share rental
home in Marin County, CA where low income people live and can choose to
practice lifestyle changes to improve their health.
2. The Prosperity Project:
A program creating organic Edible Landscapes in local yards and open spaces.
3. "Let's Get Healthy!":
Affordable services, classes and information on improving health naturally:
Bodywork, counseling, and Organic Gardening.
4. "Restoring the Family:" An Amazing
Family Story: How our family tree became a "family
forest!" Watch the video on the right to learn how we plan to extend
a helping hand to foster and street children.
5. Marika's Writings: Marika has
documented her healing in several ways: Books, Articles, Children's
Stories and Poetry. To order information, you can write or call:

plants, and in our bodies.
