YOUR DONATION’S IMPACT! 

With your support, YGB started funding 800 students through “Project Shaale,” to combat learning delays and gaps for poor and rural children in India.

With increased support from our global supporters during India’s COVID crisis this year, Yoga Gives Back has been able to add an important new program called “Project Shaale” (“shaale” is Kannada for “school”) run by our NGO Partner Deenabandhu Trust, which provides professional development and experiential learning tools for teachers at 40 poorly-funded local government schools in order to address the severe learning delays and gaps that poor, rural, and girl children have faced during the 18-months long, pandemic-related school closures.
