Karuna Yoga & Ahmad Butler Foundation (ABF) 

 

The Ahmad Butler Foundation (ABF) is a nonprofit fiercely committed to supporting families of children fighting pediatric cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.

​

Founded in loving memory of six-year-old Ahmad “Captain Poodaman” Butler, ABF wraps families in the care, compassion, and community they need, while helping ease the unimaginable burdens they face.

​

At the heart of their mission is the Wonderful Distractions program, moments of peace and relief crafted for parents who are in the trenches. These are mothers and fathers who spend days, even weeks, by their child’s hospital bedside, sleeping in chairs, fighting side by side with their little warrior. For them, joy and rest aren’t luxuries. They’re lifelines.

​

I am profoundly grateful to be a part of ABF; I'm hoping that these pockets of practice can help parents & children have a moment to breathe, to be, and to hold each other in a compassionate space.
