Get Involved with IYNF

Integral Yoga Natural Foods has been serving the Charlottesville
community since 1975.  We serve our community in several ways, first
by offering products that promote health and well-being, second, by
offering great customer service and third, by helping other individuals
and organizations in our community
.
Donations


Bag Nickel Program
IYNF gives a nickel back to each customer for every full-sized grocery
bag that the person reuses, rather than getting a new bag from us.  
Customers may keep or donate their nickels.  Every three months we
choose a different organization to receive customers’ bag nickels.   We
have donated to the following organizations during the last year:

  •                ARC of the Piedmont
  •                Blue Ridge Area Food Bank
  •                CASA of the Piedmont
  •                Coffee Kids
  •                Habitat for Humanity-Charlottesville
  •                Jefferson Area Board for the Aging
  •                Jefferson Youth Theater
  •                Meals on Wheels
  •                Piedmont Environmental Council
  •                Rock the Earth
  •                Voices for Animals
  •                Wild Virginia

IYNF has donated $212.00 for the first 6 months of 2009 through the
bag nickel program.

Update on Donation to Rock the Earth
Rock the Earth works closely with the music industry and its fans,
many of
whom are concerned with the fate of our public lands, air and water. RtE
acts as advocates to ensure the existence of a sustainable and healthy
environment for all!

We recently featured Rock the Earth (RtE) here through bag nickel
donations
and an event at the store on October 17th.  A local musician, Charlotte
Hisey, sang her environmentally-minded song to our volunteers!

RtE is beginning an end-of-year membership drive that includes special
gifts, so please check them out at www.rocktheearth.org  or find them
on Facebook.



Ongoing food donations to the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank  
Integral Yoga has a receptacle set up in the store for customers to
make food donations throughout the year.  We also donate a significant
proportion of items that we are no longer able to sell-such as items that
go out of date.  

*IYNF donates gift cards to many local organizations, schools and
churches.  These groups may use the gift cards to purchase items in
the store, or they may use the gift cards in their own fund raising
efforts.  We have provided donations this year to:

  •        Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Blue Ridge
  •        Camp Holiday Trails
  •        Charlottesville Community Food Project
  •        Congregation Beth Israel
  •        Johnson Elementary School
