Description
The Raw Contributor is a platform dedicated to cultivating compassion through honest conversation.
Our mission is to highlight overlooked voices and experiences by talking about the "taboo."
We do so by encouraging you to share and listen to a range of perspectives, stories, and personalities. Doing so allows us to cultivate compassion for oneself and others. TRC is devoted to telling your story.
But don't worry - we don't take anything too seriously!!
