YAMA Foundation

YAMA Foundation We share our skills with compassion, that students may realise their unique strengths, and positively contribute to the world.

YAMA Foundation is a registered charity whose mission is to make yoga, art, and meditation accessible to underserved and disadvantaged communities in Hong Kong. YAMA Foundation believes that all people have their fundamental right to feel good in their bodies, feel peaceful in their minds, live colourful lives, and be part of a caring community - regardless of their background or ability. Our mission is to provide equitable access to yoga, art, and meditation so that our students can develop self-acceptance and self-reliance to improve their quality of life. Our outreach programmes serve Hong Kong's most vulnerable communities, including people with disabilities, special needs, or chronic illness, and extend to hospices, prisons, social service organisations, schools, charities, and other non-profit organisations.

We had an incredible time at the Sandy Bay Charity Fair, celebrating 70 years of the 香港弱能兒童護助會 The Society for the Relief of Disabled Children - SRDC! 🎉

Our very own ZENsory Zone was a hit, offering hand massages, yogi toes, breathing & bubbles, mindfulness toys, and more—a little glimpse into the wellbeing practices we champion at YAMA. 🫧🧸

It was so rewarding to share our mission, connect with attendees, and meet fellow NGOs.

A huge thank you to SRDC for including us in such a special celebration. Congratulations on your incredible milestone and 70 years of impact! 🙌

我們在「大口環根德公爵夫人兒童醫院賣物會」度過了一個難忘的週末,一同慶祝「SRDC-香港弱能兒童互助會」 70 週年紀念!🎉

我們的 「Zensory Zone 感官體驗區」大受歡迎,提供手部按摩、瑜伽腳趾伸展、呼吸與泡泡遊戲、靜觀小玩具等多種體驗 —— 讓大家感受到 YAMA 所推廣的身心健康練習。能夠與公眾分享我們的使命、交流互動、並結識其他非牟利機構,真是非常有意義。

衷心感謝 SRDC 的邀請,讓我們能參與這個特別的慶典。衷心恭喜 SRDC 達成這個非凡里程碑 —— 七十年來一直為香港帶來深遠的影響!🙌
