For nearly 10 years the Community Center 729 in Orlando has been a place of yoga, meditation and spiritual retreat. Founder Patricia Roddis has another mission too, which is helping the homeless. <\/p>\n
Roddis started the Non-profit Community Center 729 in 2007 as a place to explore spirituality. The center,just off of North Mills Avenue, offers classes in yoga, meditation and spiritual development. <\/p>\n
Roddis also helps the homeless by providing them with food, clean clothes and other essentials. said Roddis. <\/p>\n
It came down to IDs, steeled toed shoes, and resumes, said Roddis. <\/p>\n
And that pretty much summed up what was the difference between someone getting a job and not. <\/p>\n
The center always has clean clothes and can help with food when it is needed. <\/p>\n
If I want to really sum up the center that is one of the amazing things about it, I can put out a news letter saying that this is what were wanting [items for people in need] and it floods in, said Roddis. <\/p>\n
The center holds meditation classes around every night, and yoga classes every other night at the center, and serves all walks of life. <\/p>\n
