| Renewal Retreats held a 2-day event for 30 participants, a repeat program. Certain participants attended with no charge or at a discounted rate. The retreat was for people living with cancer: men, women, family, partners & friends. Participants learned tools for creating a healthy lifestyle in a supportive community of experts: guided imagery & movement for stress reduction, how to use and prepare a nutritious cancer-fighting culinary toolkit, the components of a well-balanced, safe & effective exercise program to optimize health, minimize symptoms and side effects. The workshop leaders were conducted by: Keith Darling, a nationally recognized chef and educator; Carol Augustus, mind-body consultant and coach; Patricia Newmann, a nationally recognized professional coach and group facilitator; Jillian Shay, cancer & exercise specialist. There were 4 workshops over the course of 2 days. | $16,982 |

| Renewal Retreats continued to expand the MedaFit program, which started in2011, promoting exercise for people living with serious and chronic healthconditions. It connects patients and their medical teams to health clubs and otherexercise programs with the goal of promoting exercise to health. We haveexercise counselors at UCSF Comprehensive Cancer Center in San Francisco, CAproviding a free consultation to all cancer patients, as well as at Marin General inGreenbrae, CA.

| Renewal Retreats began a new program in 2014, Equine Therapy for Conscious Aging, which expanded in 2015 and is now called Equine Guided Personal Growth & Wellness. We held three 1-day retreats for 10 women per class, led by Patricia Elliott Rothchild, MFT, who facilitated the programs along with two horses provided by Ellen Walker. We created a forum through which the participants learned skills to optimize their health and happiness by learning about themselves and others by engaging in ground-based activities with the horses, and then discussing feelings, behaviors and patterns. Equine Therapy is known and documented to be a therapeutic means for helping people transform their lives and their relationships through the inspiration they find with horses, used for neurophysiological, cognitive, sensory processing and psychosocial challenges. Certain participants had discounted rates or no charge. | $15,649 |
