MUTUAL AID REQUEST

FAWN’S CANCER TREATMENT FUND

In 2022, Fawn Williams expanded Elk Rock Yoga, a studio she acquired in 2020, further solidifying her commitment to building an inclusive and welcoming community. Over the past three years, Fawn has poured her "blood, sweat, and tears" into growing Elk Rock Yoga with a clear mission: to support all bodies through a practice that embraces all peoples, beliefs, and abilities.

That mission took an exciting new form with the opening of Elk Rock Yoga’s sister space, Elk Rock Outpost, at 2205 E Burnside. Officially launched on Memorial Day Weekend 2025, the Outpost was created as more than a retail shop—it is a carefully curated haven designed to inspire an artful life. The space offers a diverse selection of carefully sourced products that reflect Fawn’s dedication to wellness and community:

• Consumables: Delicious treats and pantry staples for everyday nourishment

• Wellness and Self-Care Items: Products that nurture mind, body, and spirit

• Vintage Finds and Gifts: Unique treasures and meaningful gifts

Every item at the Outpost is chosen through direct collaborations with artisans, makers, farmers, and growers, ensuring that each piece promotes ease, beauty, and well-being.

Beyond retail, Elk Rock Outpost serves as a vibrant community hub featuring workshops, live music, and gatherings that foster connection and creativity. This space stands as a testament to Fawn’s vision of supporting an inclusive community through both yoga and mindful curation, even as she courageously faces her own health challenges following a diagnosis of advanced stage endometrial cancer.

Elk Rock Yoga and The Outpost continue to be a beacon for those seeking thoughtful practices, quality products, and heartfelt community experiences. Stay tuned for upcoming events that further enrich this vibrant community space. August includes a sound bath, wine tasting, a yoga series, and an acrylic painting demonstration!

As Fawn channels her energy into bringing this new venture to life, continues the operation of her beloved yoga studio, and juggles numerous appointments and treatments for her cancer, we are committed to supporting her journey. For those who wish to offer support or explore her unique offerings:
