Join the Force of OneMilionYogis

In 2020, while many of us are blessed to have yoga practice that sustains us at this difficult time, our fund recipient women and children in India are struggling for their lives due to enormous stress added by the nationwide Covid-19 lockdown and the catastrophic Cyclone Amphan in West Bengal.

Now more than ever, we are called to take action.

Worldwide, an estimated 300 million practicing yogis drive an 80-billion dollar industry. If a fraction of this can be redirected to empower the underserved women and children in India, we can effect a real change, especially at this challenging time.

Here are easy ways to get involved.
