Ten years ago, Rob Schware and his yoga teacher, renowned Power Yoga founder Beryl Bender Birch, invested $87 to establish the Give Back Yoga Foundation as a 501(c)3. From this humble beginning, they hoped to work towards an audacious vision: by helping yogis to give back, they wanted to nurture a grassroots movement of yoga service that would plant seeds of social change and healing for all humanity.

Today, Give Back Yoga is a thriving gateway organization for yoga service. The foundation serves as fiscal sponsor for the Prison Yoga Project, yoga4cancer, Mindful Yoga Therapy, Eat Breathe Thrive and Yoga of 12-Step Recovery – helping to bring research-based, clinically tested programming to prisoners, cancer survivors, veterans, and those who are overcoming eating disorders and addiction.

Give Back Yoga also provides free practice resources for veterans and service members, and mat grants to help teachers launch new yoga programs in under-resourced areas. This work is made possible through the generous support of donors, volunteers and sponsors including Gaiam and lululemon's Here to Be program, a community-based social impact program that makes the healing benefits of yoga and meditation accessible through best-in-class nonprofit partnerships.
