Saturday, March 27, 2010 is Amnesty International’s Canada-wide YOGA DAY!
The following is excerpted from Amnesty International Canada’s March newsletter:
“About Yoga Day
March 27 2010 will mark the second year that Yoga Day goes national (Canada-wide).
Yoga Day is a fundraising and awareness raising activity to support Amnesty International's work. It grew out of a single Amnesty volunteer's passion for human rights, and a desire to make a difference. 4 years ago, Louise Mulvihill organised her first Yoga Day and successfully raised more than $4,600. In 2009, together with a team of volunteers, Louise contacted yoga studios across the country and invited them to participate on Yoga Day. The result was more than $22,000 raised for human rights!
By supporting Yoga Day, you are supporting Amnesty's credible world renowned efforts to protect and promote human rights everywhere. You are giving your friends, family and colleagues a chance to be part of the solution through Amnesty, and you are multiplying the impact of your actions by inviting your sponsors to also take action on Amnesty letterwriting cases.
Please see www.amnesty.ca
(Canada) for more information about our
(Amnesty’s) work”.
