A Message from Meghan’s Foundation
After 15 years of serving the veteran and active-duty military community as a Pennsylvania 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Meghan’s Foundation will officially conclude its mission at the end of 2026.
Since our founding in 2012, our mission has been to raise awareness of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among veterans and active-duty service members, communicating the benefits that yoga and meditation can have for managing PTSD symptoms, and developing trauma-sensitive yoga and meditation programs available at no cost to military members. We are proud to say that this mission has been a success.
Over the past 15 years, Meghan’s Foundation has supported local veterans and service members more than 10,000 times throughout Bucks, Montgomery, and Philadelphia counties. We have offered trauma-sensitive yoga classes in communities across Bucks County, including Doylestown, Yardley, Bristol, and Newtown; in Montgomery County, including Lansdale and the Montgomery County Vet Center; throughout Philadelphia County; and in Hellertown, Northampton County. We have also held classes in New Jersey and were honored to bring our programs to an active military base in Hawaii.
In addition to our classes, Meghan’s Foundation has hosted and participated in hundreds of veteran outreach events, always striving to fulfill our mission. Along the way, we have had the privilege of meeting countless members of the military community who embody the values of integrity, resilience, and selfless service.
Our work would not have been possible without the dedication of our Board of Directors. More than 20 individuals have served on the board throughout the years, contributing their time, expertise, and passion to support local veterans and active-duty service members. We extend our deepest gratitude to each of them for their commitment and teamwork.
We are also profoundly grateful to the certified yoga instructors who led our classes and embraced the Foundation’s mission. Each instructor was trained in trauma-sensitive yoga and devoted themselves to serving our military community with compassion and care. Deb, Jaimie, Kim, Patty, Christine, Simona, Liz, Laura, Caroline, Felicia, Alexis, Joanne, Susan, Robin, Christi, Anna, Barney, and Holly will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you for your years of service and dedication.
While Meghan’s Foundation is concluding its operations, we are pleased to share that yoga and meditation opportunities will continue in Doylestown and Yardley under the direction of two organizations who have graciously hosted our classes for many years.
