2nd Annual Growing Circles Benefit Concert and Dinner to benefit The Global Youth Peace Summit in Wimberley.

The WVWA has been working in partnership with The Amala Foundation to create youth and adult retreats here at the Retreat over the last year and a half.  If you are curious about the Amala Foundation and the Global Youth Peace Summit, which has been held here in Wimberley at John Knox Ranch for the last 7 years, I encourage you to read the message about their upcoming event and watch the video at the link provided.


The Amala Foundation has confirmed the date for the 2nd Annual Growing Circles Benefit Concert and Dinner to benefit The Global Youth Peace Summit in Wimberley.  It will take place June 10th, 7pm-9:30pm, at Vuka in Austin.
We're excited to announce that Gina Chavez, Phoebe Hunt, Mohinya (a classical music duo) and youth from the One Village Music Project will be performing.  Dinner will be catered by El Locavore Catering.

Proceeds from the evening will benefit this year's Global Youth Peace Summit (August 9th-15th). 
Our goal for the evening is to raise enough funds to sponsor 20 youth to attend this year's Summit.  

We would love for you to join us for this experience and help us support these incredible youth in their attempts to transform the wounds of war and violence into sustainable peace, inspiration and hope.

Here is a video we recently created with some of our youth and volunteers: http://vimeo.com/80283214.
