At Parati Yoga & Wellness, we believe in the power of community and the importance of uplifting those in need. Each month, we dedicate one of our special yoga classes to support a different charity, and this October, we are proud to partner with Edmonton’s Food Bank—an organization that has been a cornerstone in our city, helping families since 1981.
As the holidays approach, the Food Bank’s role becomes even more vital, ensuring families have access to the essentials they need for warm and comforting meals during this festive season. You can be a part of this incredible cause by joining our Charity Flow class or donating food or funds directly.
