Crossing the Waters Institute Launches Kickstarter Campaign to Fund Inaugural Batch of Healing Heat Sauce
AMHERST, Mass. - BostonChron -- Crossing the Waters Institute for Cultural Exchange is excited to announce the launch of a Kickstarter campaign for Healing Heat Sauce, a project that merges culinary tradition with cultural significance. The campaign aims to raise $3,500 to produce the first batch of 100 bottles of Healing Heat Sauce, a unique pepper sauce inspired by the rich heritage of the African Diaspora.
Healing Heat Sauce is crafted from a cherished family recipe by Cousin Elca, who emigrated from St. Vincent to the United States 26 years ago. Her pepper sauce, which has become a family favorite, symbolizes warmth, resilience, and the enduring spirit of the African Diaspora. Now, this sauce serves as the centerpiece of a campaign that seeks to connect people with their roots and raise awareness for a greater cause.

A Sauce with a Purpose
The funds raised through this Kickstarter campaign will enable the production of the first 100 bottles of Healing Heat Sauce. These bottles will be offered in exchange for love offerings, contributions that support not only the creation of the sauce but also the mission behind it. The campaign is part of a broader effort to raise awareness and funds for an annual pilgrimage to Ouidah, Benin, marking the 25th Anniversary of the Interfaith Pilgrimage of the Middle Passage.
This pilgrimage aims to reconnect individuals of African descent with their ancestral roots and heal the historical wounds of slavery, fostering a deeper sense of community and shared heritage.
How to Support Us
"We invite everyone to join us in this effort, whether by supporting the campaign, spreading the word, or simply enjoying a bottle of Healing Heat Sauce," said Brett Mallory, Director of Communications at Crossing the Waters Institute. "This campaign is about more than just producing a sauce; it's about honoring our history, connecting with our roots, and building a future together."
