India is the birthplace of yoga, and those of us who benefit from it understand this connection and feel the pain of those who suffering from the current, deadly wave of COVID-19. There are many ways we can help, including:
-Operation Shanti in Mysore was started by ashtanga students to help street children, and currently serves local children and street moms. The group "Envisions... A world in which the poor are given the opportunity to reach their full potential in life." Now, they are partnering with Wasatch Ayurveda & Yoga to help provide Covid relief to those who live in Mysore, India and are being severely affected by thesecond, deadly wave of Covid-19. The money raised goes directly to trusted people in Mysore via Operation Shanti, and dispersed to individuals they know are suffering now for lack of food and basics.

The Yoga Alliance also has a couple of recommendations:
American India Foundation, working on health facility, frontline health worker, and community-centered interventions in India.
