CAN Cancer Benefits from Yogi's Unite Event

On Sunday, September 12, 2010, Yogi's Unite Bend took place in the Old Mill District outside of the Bikram yoga studios.

Over 300 people showed up to be apart of the largest yoga class in Bend History!

The event raised money for CAN Cancer and the Bethlehem Inn. To date, over $28,000 has been raised for CAN Cancer, a local appeal to provide community assistance to help cover non-medical living expenses for Central Oregonians fighting all forms of cancer.
