Warrior Within Yoga Project is a 501(c)3 organization offering trauma-informed yoga to veterans, service members, first responders and their families across Massachusetts.

Our talented and passionate instructors are providing our Warriors with the tools and training to manage stress, increase resiliency and promote post-traumatic growth. It's our goal as an organization to reduce the barriers veterans and first responders face in accessing services to support mental health and wellness.

To continue to offer these free weekly services, we are calling on local businesses and individuals who want to make a big impact in their own community.

Our organization is looking to raise $6,000 to support veterans and first responders in Metrowest over a 12 month period starting September 2023. Raising these funds is critical to ensure the sustainability of our weekly classes in Natick. We are also seeking support for those interested in sponsoring pilot programs in new Massachusetts communities.

We have sponsorship packages from $500 up to $2,500 to fit a variety of budgets. As a sponsor, you will be able to choose which community your pledge will support.

The impact you will make:

As a Complimentary Alternative Therapy, yoga can be used to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD and other behavioral health conditions that occur at high rates within the veteran and first responder community. To best serve our Warriors the classes we provide:

Are led by well-trained instructors who understand the unique scope of need within the community
Use evidence-based techniques which show how to rapidly bring the nervous system back to balance
Are adaptive, accessible and safe for Warriors of all generations and abilities
Incorporate best practices when working within veteran populations
Free for veterans, service members, first responders and their families/caretakers

Each of these weekly classes can accommodate around 10-12 participants, with the potential of reaching 500+ visits per year.

Our show of gratitude:

As a young and growing non-profit, our mission's success relies on your support. All our Sponsorship levels acknowledge the contributions of the business and individuals who will make our work possible. We recognize sponsors on social media, via email newsletters, and on our website. In the inaugural year of our Sponsorship Program, both Platinum and Gold "Founding" Sponsors will earn permanent recognition on our website.
