Supporting Yoga in Toronto Communities
Swami Vishnudevananda’s mission was to spread peace around the world. We are working to integrate Yoga into Toronto communities so that everyone has access to the teachings and tools that promote both inner and outer peace.
In addition to raising funds for both local and international causes, we have developed teaching partnerships with numerous community organizations and the Toronto District School Board, allowing us to reach a diverse group of students and increase access.
We believe that with your support, we will be able to not only continue with this mission but to expand and reach every member of our community.
