Community Giving
At 8 Limbs our Community Giving takes several routes.
COMMUNITY GIVING PARTNER
Each year 8 Limbs chooses one local non-profit to support. Past recipients have been Street Yoga, Solid Ground, Gay City, and Yoga Behind Bars. In 2020, 8 Limbs supports Real Rent Duwamish and Duwamish Tribal Services to support the revival of Duwamish culture and the vitality of the Duwamish Tribe, and Solid Ground, to support work to end poverty and undo racism and other oppressions that are root causes of poverty. All proceeds collected from our 2020 Thanksgiving Day benefit classes will be donated to Real Rent Duwamish and Solid Ground.
