"At 109 we believe that nothing substitutes experience, that’s why our empowering & fundraising model is done through organizing global trips; Participants get first-hand insight into some of the most important social and environmental causes of today, while their money used to pay the trip is directed as a donation grant to our local partners which otherwise wouldn’t be able to get the support needed to continue their work and create impact. 109 only partners with local grassroots organizations that are improving the lives of hundreds of people and protecting their local environment."

"The Give Back Yoga Foundation believes in making yoga available to those who might not otherwise have the opportunity to experience the transformational benefits of this powerful practice. As a national non profit yoga organization, we do this by supporting and funding research-based, clinically tested yoga programs for marginalized populations. We also provide supplies to help kickstart yoga programs in under-resourced areas. Through this work, we aim to inspire grassroots social change and community cooperation.
