About the Event
On the night of December 7th, we challenged our community to meditate for the Homeless. The event lasts for 10 hours, we ask active participants to meditate for at least 30 minutes.
How will the event be processed?
This event will be held online through Zoom, Youtube and Facebook platforms (access links shared after registration). In the Organization's virtual room there will always be one person meditating (30 minutes each person) who can be seen by the entire community, where guided meditations will be organized at 21:45, 00:00 and 7:15 (in portuguese). The rest of the time, there will be silent meditation.
The funds raised will revert to the CRESCER ( NGO for the Homeless in Portugal).
Our intention is to expand collective awareness and sensitize the community to the vulnerable situation of homeless people.
Together, we aim to increase understanding and compassion and mobilize the community to reduce the risk of violence to vulnerable people through meditation and community unity.
