Flow for All
 
 

Hoopologie Social Impact Program – “Flow for All”

Mission – To disrupt inequality in wellbeing through movement (flow), mindfulness and advocacy.

Call to Action:  Everyone has the right to be well.  We believe that movement, flow and community have the power to support mental, physical and social wellbeing.  We acknowledge systematic inequities that restrict access and that not everyone feels represented or welcome.  Flow for All is our efforts to impact our community to provide accessibility and to advocate for systemic change.

Hoopologie is looking to partner with not-for-profit organizations that embrace the healing power of movement and flow arts, and that advocate for civil and human rights.

Our Support Includes:

-Funding, application driven grants

-By invitation grants

-Product donations

-Connection and shared resources

-Learning and community building

-Amplification – storytelling across our platforms

 

We will work with global, national, and local organizations that support communities including:

-people experiencing systems of inequality due to racial/ethnic identity, LGBTQ+ and disability

-youth and emerging leaders

-humanitarian and disaster relief workers

 

Hoopologie is actively looking for non-profit partners for our social impact initiatives.  If you or someone you know would benefit from a partnership with us, please email [email protected] to begin the application process.
