This Cooperation Circle (CC) is an interfaith spiritual community of long duration. Their programs include: the Feed Everyone Program, where they feed hundreds weekly and visit nursing homes; the Stamp Out Hunger program; the Back to School Bash, where they provide 1,000 kids with food and school supplies; and the Women's Empowerment program in Uganda. Their dream is to continue improving and expanding Kashi, which is committed to enriching the lives of individuals, who seek to deepen their awareness, stimulate their intellect, challenge themselves, transform their lives and renew their spiritual path.
