Yoga event raises money for ARF

The organizer of a fundraiser to benefit the Animal Rescue Fund of St. Joseph County said nearly $1,200 was raised during the one-day event in Colon.
Paula Alexander Livermore said “Yoga For A Cause” took place Saturday at her Colon yoga studio with 20 participants. Together, they raised $1,182 for the organization.
She hailed the event as a success and said the total raised includes a match from an ARF advocate.
Additionally, Livermore said she held “Yoga for a Cause” at a studio in Owosso earlier this month, raising $350 for the Shiawassee Humane Society.
Both fundraisers were staged in memory of Livermore’s dachshund, which had to be euthanized late last year due to an irreversible condition.
