Gather with Good Intentions
Saturday, September 24, 2022 | 10 am
Join us on September 24, 2022 as Grace Cathedral celebrates its 10th annual Yoga for Change, to benefit The Community Preschool. Our goal is to raise $40,000, and your help is needed. We invite our community of socially-minded supporters to join together for a morning of yoga to support this vital and transformative early childhood education. Proceeds fund student financial aid and preschool operational expenses including teacher training seminars, meals, outdoor activities, revitalizing indoor and outdoor classrooms, and our dreams of opening a resource center.
Every ticket purchased is entered into our raffle to win three months of yoga on the labyrinth classes.
When I reflect on the impact I may make on a child’s life, I think about each moment as a child when I felt valued, heard, loved, respected, seen, and pushed to be a changemaker by my teachers.”
— Loren Smith, Director of The Community Preschool
