Sponsor a Spot for Shri Service Corps!

Shri teachers and supporters are coming together for a private yoga class led by Jane Viscolosi on Saturday, October 3, from 1:00–3:00 p.m. at Shri. As they prepare to participate, they'll invite family, friends, community members, and local businesses to Sponsor Their Spot by making a donation in support of Shri Service Corps' free yoga outreach programs.

Unlike many traditional fundraisers, this event has virtually no operating expenses, meaning 100% of every pledge directly supports Shri Service Corps' free yoga outreach programs.

Funds this year will allow Shri to serve more students in new senior centers while also launching partnerships with new adaptive organizations and partner schools.

We know our community is asked to support many worthwhile causes throughout the year. Our Sponsor a Spot campaign offers a simple, flexible way to make a difference without the time commitment of a traditional fundraising event.

Of course, anyone who sponsors a spot is warmly invited to claim that spot and join us for the yoga class—but attendance is completely optional. Whether you practice with us or simply sponsor someone else's participation, your generosity will directly strengthen our outreach across Rhode Island.

About Shri Service Corps >>

Shri Service Corps™ is the 501(c)(3) nonprofit arm of Shri Yoga. We fund and deliver free yoga outreach programs seven days a week for individuals with special needs and the professionals who support them. Our programs take place in schools, social service agencies, hospitals, shelters, recovery centers, senior centers, municipal institutions, and other community settings.

Our highly trained teachers deliver a joyful, rhythm-based curriculum rooted in yogic philosophy and evidence-informed practices. Together, we cultivate compassionate, balanced, and inclusive communities while helping participants reduce toxic stress and build greater physical and emotional resilience.

Each year, Shri Service Corps™ serves more than 10,000 people, ages 4 to 102, throughout Rhode Island. Our outreach is delivered by 43+ certified teachers working in schools, hospitals, shelters, recovery centers, and many other community organizations.

In 2022 alone, we provided 1,339 free yoga outreach classes, bringing movement, mindfulness, and connection to those who need it most.

With your support, we can continue expanding this work and making a lasting impact in our community. Every sponsored spot helps bring free yoga to someone who otherwise might not have access to it. Thank you for helping us create healthier, more connected communities across Rhode Island.
