Overview

Mission

Universal Peace Foundation California is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to serve as the focal point for offering Inner Awakening programs dedicated to guiding at least 1% of the Californian population on the path of individual peace for global peace. We accomplish this goal through a series of educational programs focusing on yoga and meditation. Through our programs and services, we hope to make a lasting impact in the lives of the individuals that we work with and the community as a whole.

Services included Gusa therapy, energy-based healing practices, aura and chakra analysis, and guided chakra balancing sessions.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 74% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
