Giving Back
The Good Shepherd Housing Foundation is hosting a Feel Good event dedicated to wellness with MyBodYoga Studio in Woodbridge. We chose relaxing activities to raise awareness and funds. Housing means well-being and stability, gentle yoga and meditations bring comparable benefits. 100% of your entry will be given to the GOOD SHEPHERD HOUSING FOUNDATION, a non-profit that ends homelessness for low income families and people in need of mental health housing and services. Get tickets here. Saturday, May 25, 2:00-5:30 p. m. | MyBodYoga, 2570 Dynasty Loop, Woodbridge
