About Our Auction

Help me raise money for Africa Yoga Project during their Bi-Annual, USA, Hugs. Handstands. Happiness Tour. I am proud to be hosting two teachers from Nairobi, Kenya who are a part of the Africa Yoga Project.

There are two ways you can help us raise money. The first is to bid on our items listed here on 32Auction or you can attend a community yoga class taught by our two AYP teachers, Mille Weke and Lizzie Muthoni.

I cannot think of three better words to describe walking into the Africa Yoga Project Shine Center, in Nairobi, Kenya. Africa Yoga Project is bringing their contagious energy, enthusiasm and talents of AYP Teachers to communities across the US with their bi-annual Hugs, Happiness and Handstands tour.

Home Power Yoga, in Cranford, NJ, (https://www.homepoweryoganj.com/) is a proud sponsor of this event. Come join us at Home Power Yoga on 10/28 from 12-2pm at their Cranford, NJ yoga studio for African Yoga Beats Community Class!

A key part of the AYP program are their outreach classes; bringing yoga into communities that otherwise wouldn’t have access. Some of these outreach classes include community centers in slums, children’s homes, prisons, women’s groups, and more.

As we host these two Kenyan instructors, we too want to share their shine with you and your community, especially though service.

Your donations help us to empower others and create leaders in the community. This silent auction via 32Auction helps to raise money for Africa Yoga Project. Your donation is tax deductible, will help you accumulate great karma and most of all my sincerest appreciation. It also does the following:

$10 provides clean drinking water for 5 free outreach classes in Kenya.

$30 sponsors one sign language interpreter to empower 20 deaf children through yoga

$50 buys 20 yoga mats for one of the AYP free outreach yoga classes.

$75 provides one yoga class and lunch for 30 prisoners

$125 funds a month salary of one Africa Yoga Project teacher to empower others through yoga.

$1,000 sponsors 4 Kenyan youth in a comprehensive and transformational week long yoga teacher training.

Thank you for your contributions!

Namaste and Asante
