Story
I am committing to do 10 sun salutations every day between August 16 and September 16th for this worthy cause.
MUKTI supports two childrens homes in India: Karm Marg (meaning The Way of Action) and Naz. We have been supporting these homes for over a decade because the work they are both doing is amazing and needs to be supported. Karm Marg is a home for street-children and Naz is the only home for HIV Positive children in India.
For twenty-five years Yogins ~ teachers and students of the Traditional Yoga Association and Garuda ~ have raised funds for homeless and destitute children and women in India. Among the projects we have contributed to are:
- The building of schools for children on the sites of bonded labour in and around Delhi;
- A home for abandoned older women in Pune;
- A home for abandoned children who are HIV Positive or have AIDS in Delhi;
- A home for street children on the outskirts of Delhi.
- Projects for the homeless in the UK, including Launchpad (Reading) and Centrepoint (London).
Our big fund-raiser this year is asking you to take up the MUKTI 2021 Sun Salutations Challenge:Get your friends and family to sponsor you to complete a chosen number of Sun Salutations each day or week from the 16th of August to the 16th September. During this period the Sun ~ according to Vedic astrology ~ will be in the astrological sign of Leo, its home. A great time to pay our Sun homage and, as we make ourselves fitter and more mobile, raise funds for ~ and awareness of ~ the kids homes.
