Weekly Yoga Letter - August 21, 2009
Hi to all Yoga Bear friends,
Busy week at the Yoga Bear’s world :)
This Wednesday, hundreds of people joined Yoga Bear at Citrine Lounge in New York City for the KARMA PARTY fundraiser. We raised $3,000 through admissions fees and our silent auction. Some of our guests posted pictures on the Facebook page, check them out!
The money will be used to help expand our work in the Healing Yoga Project, providing yoga to men and women in cancer centers across the US.
A huge thank-you to our hosts and sponsors and supporters, which are listed on the event homepage.
Yoga Bear was in the News this week:
Ning Blog featured our website.
The Public Interest Registry used Yoga Bear as a case study for non-profits leveraging the social web to do good.
The Huffington Post also wrote about the Karma Party Fundraiser.
Some local news:
