Giving Yoga Week 2020 a Success!

Giving Yoga Week inspired many donations from supporters which in turn gives yoga to the at risk groups The Yoga Foundation supports. 100% of funds raised will go to programming so we can deliver more evidence based services to young people in need, women affected by domestic violence and men whose lives are at risk due to mental health challenges.
