GRATITUDE UNITES US!
Over 160 events in over 10 countries took place this June for our annual Global Gathering for India, raising nearly $40,000 so far. It is inspiring and heartwarming to witness our global community gather together to express our gratitude for yoga and to give back to Mother India. These funds will tremendously help Yoga Gives Back’s programs in India as we’re already assisting more than 3,000 women and children with life-changing opportunities with the support of our NGO Partners.
We cannot thank you enough, each and every one of you who organized, taught, participated, volunteered and sponsored this campaign to effect meaningful, transformative changes in people’s lives.
