On giving back to the community.

For as long as I can remember, service and volunteer work has been a part of my upbringing. Every night my mom would ask me to pray for three people, along with what I was grateful for. I recall high school afternoons of candy striping at the hospital and tending to the garden at our local church, just to name a few. Giving back to the community and supporting others is something that I value deeply.

I am so honored to volunteer and teach yoga for an amazing organization called Salt and Light Coalition. Salt and Light Coalition is a grassroots movement mobilizing individuals and organizations to empower survivors of human trafficking to live meaningful and purposeful lives.

January is human trafficking awareness month. Sadly enough, Chicago has the highest number of human trafficking cases in the country. To bring more awareness and help fight the battle of human trafficking, I’m offering a donation based yoga class through Zen Yoga Garage. If you are unable to attend class, any financial contribution is greatly appreciated. Please also share with any family and friends that would be interested in supporting this cause.

Class is on Friday, January 29th from 8-9am CT. To sign up for class, please click here.

To make a financial contribution, please click here. 100% of funds raised will go directly to Salt + Light Coalition.

Thank you so much for your consideration, support and energy. Here’s to continuously lifting each other up and bringing some loving kindness into this world.

In love, light + with gratitude,
Nicole
