Our Projects 

Being part of the community not apart from the community is a very important part of our philosophy.  Nine Roses believes that Social Action, Social Justice, using our right of free speech to raise awareness for groups and organizations dedicated to helping those that cannot help themselves is our responsibility as stewards of mother earth.

Heartland Spiritual Alliance

​

Founded in 1987 and incorporated in 1988 as a Missouri General Not For Profit Corporation, the Heartland Spiritual Alliance is perpetually working for the community through a variety of educational programs and activities consistent with our Mission Statement. Besides hosting the Heartland Pagan Festival, we also have a monthly networking and educational group called The Spirit Circle which meets on the third Thursday of every month at Aquarius-Vulcans Forge in Kansas City, MO. Managed by our Sacred Experience Committee, this gathering has free workshops on a variety of topics of Pagan interest. Yearly, HSA sponsors such activities as Pagan Pride Day, the Crystal Ball - A Pagan Formal Dance, and the Witches' Ball. HSA also publishes a free informational newsletter called The Heartland Spirit.

The Humane Society

​

The Humane Society of the United States is the nation's largest and most effective animal protection organization, backed by 11 million Americans. We help animals by advocating for better laws to protect animals; conducting campaigns to reform industries; providing animal rescue and emergency response; investigating cases of animal cruelty; and caring for animals through our sanctuaries and wildlife rehabilitation centers, emergency shelters and clinics
