Invati’s Impact Outreach Program
Invati’s Impact Outreach Program
Jan. 17
Our Invati impact outreach program is making a significant impact both globally and within our own communities within the Okanagan.
We have been actively reaching out to small, impoverished villages in countries like Ecuador and Nicaragua, focusing on providing support and assistance through our recent and future retreats. These retreats have proven to be life-changing for all those involved.
Over the past 6 years, we have worked closely with organizations like Hope Outreach, and now we have established our own in-body outreach program. The support and generosity of our community members have been instrumental in the success of our local outreach efforts. Many individuals have donated their time, food, clothing, blankets, Christmas gifts, gift cards, and other essential items, as well as making cash donations. These contributions have made a significant difference and have touched the lives of many struggling homeless individuals. If you would like more information on how you can get involved in our Invati impact program, please feel free to email us at invatiyoga@gmail.com.
We would be happy to provide you with more details and discuss how you can make a positive impact through our outreach initiatives.
