1st Annual VETOGA Wellness Retreat

This January we successfully hosted our 1st annual veterans wellness retreat at VETOGA’s partner Ojas Retreat Center in California. Despite the challenges of COVID, VETOGA was able to execute a transformational wellness retreat for our military, veterans and family members. This retreat allowed participants to take a break from life and just be present in the beautiful healing environment provided by Ojas Retreat Center in southern California.

We’d like to thank all of you who donated during our Giving Tuesday Campaign in December. With your kind donations we are able to sponsor 14 amazing humans to attend this retreat. Thank you for making this possible!

Check out the short video to hear what VETOGA offers.
