About Me: I am so excited to be a part of the 2011 Yoga Challenge! My love for yoga and participation in community events for a cause make this a perfect fundraising opportunity. During the Challenge, I will continue my regular yoga practice at MINT. But, I also want to try out a few of the other local studios and make the most of the yogi specials that will be offered in August. Don't worry, I will keep everyone posted with blog updates on my project page:) Looking forward to supporting such an amazing organization that will educate and empower the young men and women who live in my community!

Domestic violence affects everyone regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, or educational background. This project directly funds two Becky’s Fund youth initiatives: the “Becoming Your Own Heroine: Lessons in Self-Empowerment and Dating Violence” and the “Young Men’s Mentorship Program”. Targeting the highest risk youths in the D.C. metro area, the initiatives provide participants with education about dating and domestic violence. As a result, youth have the tools to create healthy, productive relationships, and learn how to teach others by example about conflict resolution, allowing them to build lasting and healthy relationships for the future.
