He also offers regular mentoring to the Executive Director of Sacred Fire, helping navigate the complex responsibilities of leading such a revolutionary endeavor. Through this guidance, the sacred work of reigniting humanity’s relationship with the medicine of Fire is sustained and strengthened.
Additionally, Don David offers volunteer mentorship to the Tsantawu Men’s Council, which oversees the biannual rituals at Stone Mountain.

Though unseen by many, these efforts are essential threads in the living fabric of spiritual reconnection that Don David helps sustain. His dedication is a reminder that true leadership is rooted in service, and that sacred work continues quietly and powerfully behind the scenes, fueled by love, commitment, and the wisdom of Fire.
