Campaign Description

What is Breathe In, Speak Out, Montgomery County?  What is Choose Respect? 

The Montgomery County Domestic Violence Coordinating Council highlights a month-long series of programs to commemorate Domestic Violence Awareness Month. A committee of volunteers, including students and adults, have put together a way to raise funds for the 2022 Choose Respect program.  Called “Breathe In, Speak Out, Montgomery County,” participants might practice 108 sun salutations any time during October and collect contributions through this site to help underwrite the Choose Respect Initiative or they can:  

  1. Fundraise by asking relatives, friends, and acquaintances to donate some amount of money for every Sun Salutation they complete.
  2. Ask for single contributions.
  3. Get the word out through social media and the distribution of flyers.
  4. Support someone who is doing the sun salutations.

Thanks to Willow Street Yoga Center in Takoma Park (willowstreetyoga.com), we were able to demo the sun salutations on October 8 and 9. Here are links to the practice videos:

As with any form of exercise, it's always the individual's responsibility to check with their doctor before starting something new.  100% of funds raised through Breathe In, Speak Out, Montgomery County will be donated through the Montgomery County Family Justice Center Foundation to the Choose Respect initiative.
