OM YogaThon is supporting the following charities
Rainforest Foundation
Every year an area of rainforest the size of England and Wales is cut down. This leaves local people homeless, drives animals and plants to extinction and releases more CO2 emissions, which cause climate change, than all of the world’s planes, trains and cars. Tropical deforestation is an issue that affects us all.
The Rainforest Foundation tackles deforestation locally and globally. Locally it helps forest communities to gain land rights, challenge logging companies and manage forests for their own wellbeing and protection of their environment. Globally it campaigns to influence national and international laws to protect rainforests and their inhabitants.
Since it was founded in 1989 the Rainforest Foundation has helped indigenous and local communities to protect more than 100,000 square kilometers of rainforest
Prison Phoenix Trust
The Prison Phoenix Trust encourages prisoners in the development of their spiritual welfare, through the practices of meditation and yoga, working with silence and the breath. We offer personal support to prisoners around the UK and Ireland through teaching, workshops, correspondence, books and newsletters - and to prison staff too. We work with people of any faith, or of none, and honour all religions.
Giving Africa
Giving Africa is a new, forward thinking charity with a clear aim – to improve the lives of children in the poorest parts of the world. Currently working in Burkina Faso, West Africa, we want to begin building a school in the north of the country in 2011 which will provide education for around 500 children currently denied that opportunity. We believe that all children can learn and make a difference - these children in Burkina will certainly be able use their learning to dual benefit both personally and also in reducing the crippling effects of poverty in their community.
Special Yoga Centre
The Special Yoga Centre in North London provides yoga therapy for children with special needs regardless of ability to pay. Each week we help over 350 children with conditions such as Downs Syndrome, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism, ADD/ADHD and other physical and developmental difficulties. We also offer a wide variety of regular yoga classes, workshops and teacher training, which together with your donations, fund our yoga therapy programme for special needs children.
