Mediation/Yoga Instructor Volunteer

10th near Crocker, Los Angeles CA

Description

Dear Me Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that was founded in October of 2021. Our organization is focused in helping teens in the South LA area. We recently gave 3 scholarships of $1,500 to high school seniors to pay for their senior activities. You can follow us on Instagram @dear.me.foundation to see the recipients of the scholarships and for the latest updates. As a brand new nonprofit organization it has been hard for us to be able to apply for grants so we have been having fundraising events. Our next event is May 1st from 10am to 1pm and we are searching for a volunteer to give either a yoga or meditation class. Since we are focused on mental health, this class will help to show the importance of self care. We're hoping that by having this class we could raise money that will go towards our next scholarship. This next scholarship will be for a student in South LA that will be transitioning over to a 4 year college/university. Since we have very little funding it has been hard for us to create an event on our own but with the help of other small business owners, we were able to get a spot to do this fundraising event. The event will take place in the Fashion District in Downtown Los Angeles on May 1st. We want to give this class at 10am for people to start their day. After the class we will have some guest speakers talk about the importance of mental health and their struggles of growing up in South Central Los Angeles but still being able push through and do great things. If you would like to volunteer to be a yoga/meditation instructor to help us with this event, please send us a message via Instagram @dear.me.foundation or by visiting our website www.dearmefoundation.org and filling out a form there. Thank you!
