Tangled Pursuits Events: AE, Zenacity™ & Zentastic™ 2025 ... plus Oasis of Zen!

Published over 1 year ago • 2 min read

​

Thank you Reader so much for staying subscribed to this newsletter.

Here are some exciting Event updates!

CZT : AE 2025 Updates

CZT : AE 2025 x UNHCR

Thank you for Giving Back with CZT : AE

​
This year was filled with so many challenges and hurdles for an international event like AE. In spite of having a fewer number of attendees higher costs and tariff issues, our community of CZTs still managed to raise USD$10,000.00 for UNHCR’s global efforts! These funds are especially crucial now in these turbulent times and it is surreal that we still made it to give back.

This brings the total of funds raised by CZT : AE over the years towards humanitarian efforts to USD$68,000.00!

Thank you for being part of AE over the years!

These achievements are not possible without the contributions

from everyone!

Like pen and paper, we really are better together.
